Hi,
I have a folder where I store my tex sources and generated pdfs. The problem is that now it is overflooded with temporary files (top, tuo,log,...).
I remember Hans wrote somewhere that LuaTeX will hold temporary files in memory... But they are still there, on the disk.
Buffers are stored in memory but you need external files for the references, lists (table of content, figures ...).
Yes, I know the --purge-all option, but it is too long to write "context filename --purge-all ", isn't it?
Not for me.
It would be very nice if we could set an option somewhere (for example, in the registry) to NOT generate temporary files, and even log files (I never use them).
You could ask for a parameter in cont-sys.tex or a similiar file. Wolfgang
