I wrote a small script for my Linux machine (check-context.sh), to be
able to check a single file:

  source $HOME/ctxbeta/tex/setuptex
  mtxrunjit --autogenerate --script check $1
  echo $1

But when applied to a file, I get the following:

  $ check-context untitled.tex
  The argument "/home/ousia/untitled.tex" is not a valid TEXROOT path.
  (There is no file "/home/ousia/untitled.tex/texmf/tex/plain
  /base/plain.tex")
      8  grouping error  ode[abc] <lf>     This is \linenote{abed
   intended. <lf>      <lf>     \stopt
   10  missing stop  enote{abed intended. <lf>      <lf>     \stoptext
   <lf>  (see line 7)

  untitled.tex

I mean, I get the output, but after an error. $1 has full path in the
first ocurrence, but it has only the relative path with echo.

Of course, I get not error by direct invocation:

  $ mtxrunjit --autogenerate --script check untitled.tex
      8  grouping error  ode[abc] <lf>     This is \linenote{abed
   intended. <lf>      <lf>     \stopt
   10  missing stop  enote{abed intended. <lf>      <lf>     \stoptext
  <lf>  (see line 7)

What am I doing wrong here?

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo
