Thanks Hans,

it works. But there is a problem.
The way you described it, the *.synctex file gets deleted as well, but I think I need it for Sumatra PDF to sync. When I used texmfstart.exe and --purgeall this didn't happen.
Any idea would be great.

Thanks in advance,
Sebastian

Hi guys,

i am using mkiv with TeXnicCenter. There is an option to create a
clean-up processor which deletes temporary files.
Right now for me the options look as following:
Executable: X:\ConTeXt\tex\texmf-win64\bin\texmfstart.exe
Arguments:            texutil.rb --purgeall
This is from an old installation instruction from mkii and works great
but it makes it necessary to install Ruby.
Since I don't want to install Ruby if it's unnecessary, i'd like to know
if there is a way to clean up files without mkii and Ruby elements.
I thought it might be possible to use *context.exe* as processor
executable for deleting temp files, but i wouldn't know the correct
arguments.
Sorry if I missed something obvious.

assuming you run context mkiv:

context --purge somefile.tex

will cleanup afterwards

or without file it will cleanup all left-overs

(btw, the number of runtime generated files is not that large for mkiv: a tuc file for multipass, and a log file and of course the result pdf file)

Hans
