the synctex.gz file is not anymore deleted (however a utility file

That (not deleting tuc file) is delebrate (as it saves time in successive
runs). If you want to delete the tuc file, you can use --purgeall instead of
--purge.
Thanks Aditya: actually that utility file .tuc can be deleted for some
situations (for instance when one does a small test) and kept for others.
Maybe for those who do not use ConTeXt from a Terminal, but rather from editors
like TeXShop or TeXWorks, one could have a feature to pass typesetting options
to mkiv, for instance like a \setuptypesetting command, to be put in the first
five lines of a document, which accepts various parameters such as for example
\setuptypesetting[purge=yes,synctex={yes,zipped},engine=mkiv]
to pass options to mkiv. But this is probably too complicated.
the job is already running and one needs tex to parse such commands
there are two ways (rather old features btw) to control a job:
- some directives can be given on the first line of a file
- you can make a jobname.ctx file (there are a few examples in the
distribution)
the last one is the most flexible as there can be a file per job or a
shared one
