The rst3 plugin doesn't create so-called "derived files". Derived (aka
external) files contain Leo sentinels, but none of the intermediate files
created by the rst3 plugin have sentinels.
If you want to handle the intermediate files, it would probably be best to
use one or more @auto or @edit nodes.
Scripts can reread @auto nodes with::
fileName = p.atAutoNodeName()
at.readOneAtAutoNode (fileName,p)
and can reread @edit nodes with::
fileName = p.atEditNodeName()
at.readOneAtEditNode (fileName,p)
I'm not sure this exactly answers your question. Feel free to ask more
questions.
