convention:

% interface=en language=nl program=pdfetex

etc, the following are understood by texexec

        ['tex','texengine'],
        ['program','texengine'],
        ['translate','tcxfilter'],
        ['tcx','tcxfilter'],
        ['output','backend'],
        ['mode','mode'],
        ['ctx','ctxfile'],
        ['version','contextversion'],
        ['format','texformats'],
        ['interface','texformats']

checking does not take much time, for instance in scite, i check till i 
know; also (probably goes unnoticed), texexec does soem checking: it 
needs to figure out the interface:
