Hi,
There is a new experimental feature (one of the side effects of discussions with Alan about bibliographies and using distributed files in a project structure).
Say that you have this:
test1.tex : uses \component one/test2
one/test2.tex : uses \component two/test3
etc. There can be resources under one/two that test3 needs and one way out is to add this path to the used paths. Doing that automatically can result in side effects when multiple resources with the same name are used.
However, we now have a concept of the local job path, so when test2 is read the jobfile: prefix will use path one, and when reading test3, that prefix will trigger one/two usage.
very nice and handy feature, thanks for that. Just a remark - - there was a similar prefix "toppath:" introduced some time ago. And - IIUC - "jobfile" refers to a dir rather than to a file, so wouldn't be better to call the prefix "jobdir:" or "jobpath:"? Best regards, Lukas
For this to work, one has to say:
\usepath[jobfile:] \setupexternalfigures[directory=jobfile:]
To what extent this all works out well is to be tested.
Hans
