Hello, there was a discussion about 'toppath' or 'pathrelativetome'. Is 'toppath:' prefix working? Or what other way is to refer to the path of the current file (i.e. the file I'm referring from)? The following code doesn't work - "t-Hello.mkiv" is not found although it's located in the same directory as "t-TopPath.mkiv"; the "t-TopPath.mkiv" is compiled from ONE LEVEL UP. So e.g. let's have: c:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Test\t-TopPath.mkiv c:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Test\t-Hello.mkiv and let's switch to current (working) directory to: c:\Lukas\ConTeXt and call: context.exe Test\t-TopPath.mkiv In this situation compilation fails. How to make it work? TIA. Best regards, Lukas -- Ing. Lukáš Procházka [mailto:LPr@pontex.cz] Pontex s. r. o.

... I'd need to refer to a file from within a file, not in via '--path' option...
My case is more complicated - a file is included from more other files in various directory levels.
BTW: I was also thinking about \processedfile (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/processedfile) and about splitting it (taking the part up to the last / or \) but \processedfile gives nothing - try:
----
\enabletrackers[resolvers]
\starttext
T
\processedfile
%\input toppath:/t-Hello.mkiv
\stoptext
----

Hello!
My case is more complicated - a file is included from more other files in various directory levels.
I do this with \component: https://bitbucket.org/andrecaldas/math-video-classes/src/92a8e5b1a6eee07ed34... André Caldas.

Is 'toppath:' prefix working?
... My observation so far: 'toppath' works with \component, so if one needs to include a file, it's better to include it via: \component file.tex where 'topttath' works as well: \component toppath:/path-relative-to-me/file.tex whilst \input path-relative-to-me/file.tex works "traditionally", so path is always relative to the directory the compilation is launched from.

Hello!
Is 'toppath:' prefix working?
I use it only with \component, \environment, \product, \project. It works even if I do like this: $ mkdir build $ cd build $ context ../src/products/assorted.tex
context.exe Test\t-TopPath.mkiv In this situation compilation fails. How to make it work?
It seems your observations in an e-mail below are right. Prefixes do not seem to work with \input. I don't know if prefixes are supposed to work or not with \input... but this issue is not related to toppath. Cheers, André Caldas.

input is rather low level (we have \component, processfile, readfile etc instead) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
