     a neat application!


Thank you for this hint, Aditya. This would be a very nice solution
indeed. But it does not seem to work:

% macros=mkix
\definemode[A][yes]
\starttext
\startluacode
    if tex.modes['A'] then
      context("A")
    end
\stopluacode
<?lua if tex.modes['A'] then ?>
A
<?lua end ?>
\stoptext

With ConTeXt LMTX 2021.03.17 the output of the above is a single "A". I
would expect two. What am I doing wrong?

When the file gets preprocessed the mode is not known

context --mode=A foo.tex

it does of course also work when you set the mode in a parent file and
then include foo.tex

I wonder if we could have an environment, say \startluatemplate ... 
\stopluatemplate, which is evaluated on the fly rather than when loading a file.

define 'evaluated on the fly'

Aditya
