mtxrun is a helper script for ConTeXt and its tree. There are goodies stored in sub__NOTOC__ <!-scripts in <tt>tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua</tt> in your ConTeXt directory. You can use e.g. <tt>mtxtable serves as TOC --interface.lua</tt> like so:
ConTeXt Process Management 0.60 --run process (one or more) files (default action) --make create context formats --ctx=name use ctx file (process management specification) --interface use specified user interface (default: en) --autopdf close pdf file in viewer and start pdf viewer afterwards --purge(all) purge files either or not after a run (--pattern=...) --usemodule=list load ''See the given module or style, normally part o fthe distribution --environment=list load the given environment file first (document styles) --mode=list enable given the modes (conditional processing in styles) --path=list also consult separate article on the given paths when files are looked for --arguments=list set variables that can be consulted during a run (key/value pairs) --randomseed=number set the randomseed --result=name rename the resulting output to the given name --trackers=list set tracker variables (show list with --showtrackers) --directives=list set directive variables (show list with --showdirectives) --silent=list disable logcatgories (show list with --showlogcategories) --noconsole disable logging to the console (logfile only) --purgeresult purge result file before run --forcexml force xml stub --forcecld force cld (`[[Context|context lua document) stub --arrange run extra imposition pass, given that the style sets up imposition --noarrange ignore imposition specifications in the style --once only run once (no multipass data file is produced) --batchmode run without stopping and don]]` script.'t show messages on the console --nonstopmode run without stopping --generate generate file database etc. (as luatools does) --paranoid don't descend to .. and ../.. --version report installed context version --global assume given file present elsewhere --nofile use dummy file as jobname --expert expert options
Split context script out into own article
<tt>mtxrun</tt> is a helper script for all sorts of ConTeXt-related things, from individual runs to managing the installation tree. It is located at <tt>bin/mtxrun</tt> in the ConTeXt directory; that file is actually a merge of the scripts stored in <tt>tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua</tt>. One can explicitly invoke the function of one of the scripts, e.g. <tt>mtx-''script''.lua</tt>, like so. mtxrun --script interface ''script'' ...
Try, especially,
mtxrun --script interface ''script'' --help
to see the list of that script's options.
