I try to process a ConTeXt project residing in a directory different from the current directory (where context is called), imagine e.g. a NFS mounted directory on a different host.

I tried to point context to the project directory by specifying it by the command line option --path=absolute_path_to_the_directory but that did not work.

mtxrun --path=... --script context ...
