Thanks both. I stripped out the \starttext \xmlprocessfile ... \stoptext from my tex file and just used the command line invocation as suggested and it worked perfectly. So I've learned two things for the price of one! Thanks again. Duncan On Mon, 30 Jun 2025 at 17:34, Denis Maier via ntg-context < ntg-context@ntg.nl> wrote:

Do you actually need \xmlprocessfile{...}{\inputfilename}{} ?

I just use context --environment=mytexfile myxmlfile.xml and it works just fine.

Hello list. I feel this should be an easy question to answer but I couldn't find a hint.

I have a ConTeXt file which pulls in an XML file for processing using the command

\xmlprocessfile{mydomain}{myXMLfile.xml}{}

I would like instead to call context with the XML file name in the command line (so that I can use the same ConTeXt setups on multiple XML sources).

How can I do that?

\xmlprocessfile{...}{\inputfilename}{}

and process it with

context --environment=mytexfile myxmlfile.xml
