Hello, I have two identical files, one named main.ctx.tex and the other tmp.ctx.tmp. The latter was made by copying the former.

ctx suffixes are kind of special (depends a bit how used, but as part of workflows context will read them as xml files and lookup mapped names) and tmp is used for buffers and such (but normally the buffer name is prefixed); another situation may occur when tmp is used to save the top file (texexec options)

I can't reproduce this at the moment. If it happens again I'll send the tuo file. Thanks, Roger
