How to remove \jobname-mpgraph.dddd?

I have a silly question - how do I remove mpgraph files now that ctxtools is gone and "context --purge" doesn't know about them? "context" doesn't need to know about mpgraph files as long as MKIV is not generating them, but if there is no mkii-only --purge alternative ... I have fifty files \jobname-mpgraph.4000 ... \jobname-mpgraph.3951 and even though I can use "rm", --purge would be a lot more convenient. Mojca

Hi Mojca, If you are working on a Mac, with TeXShop, I can tell you what I do: my mkiv.engine file contains the following: #!/bin/bash source /Volumes/OK/context-minimal/tex/setuptex context "$1" rm -f *.tui *.log *.tuo *.xdv *.mp *.tmp *.top *-mpgraph.* *-mpgraph-temp.dvi *.tuc So that after running context, the only file which is kept is \jobname.pdf (however this may be dangerous if you are using MetaPost with file suffixes *.mp. In my case since everything is done through context and files *.tex, I have no problem). Best regards: OK
