Hi again,
Lua has no function to check if a file exists.
ATM I’m using this:

function userdata.file_exists(name)
   local f=io.open(name,"r")
   if f~=nil then io.close(f) return true
   else return false end
end

Is there anything (better) in ConTeXt?

local data = io.loaddata(...)

if data then
  ...
end
