I want to write a cld document with some data read on the standard

context passes (depending on the case, it is launched 2 to 3 times).

local name = io.read()
context.startdocument()
context("Hello " .. name)
context.stopdocument()
you can test for environment.arguments.currentrun being "1"
btw, there's also
if tex.systemmodes["first"] then
Thank you Hans... but it doesn't fully work. Now I only enter the input
once (that's ok) but on the second run, the variable is not defined
anymore. How can I keep it in the conTeXt memory?
-- Minimum still not working example
local name
if environment.arguments.currentrun == "1" then io.read() end
context.startdocument()
context("Hello " .. name)
context.stopdocument()
jobvariables.save("SomeName",value)
jobvariables.restore("SomeName")
beware, this also creates \SomeName
