You can either trigger on the language or on the mode. The directory
structure looks like this
text/en/alpha.tex
text/en/beta.tex
text/de/alpha.tex
text/de/beta.tex
images/en
images/de
You can create the individual files as components and create a
product file:
\startproduct *
\mainlanguage [de]
\project [project]
\component [a]
\component [b]
\stopproduct
and a project file:
\startproject *
\startmode [*en]
\usepath
[text/en]
\setupexternalfigures
[directory={images/en}]
\stopmode
\startmode [*de]
\usepath
[text/de]
\setupexternalfigures
[directory={images/de}]
\stopmode
\stopproject
To trigger by language, you use *en, *de, etc. To trigger by mode,
you use the mode name, in that case you can move the \mainlanguage
call to the corresponding language setup.
