Thank you, this works perfectly.  It led me also to the
\getvariable{environment}{...}, \getdocumentargument, and
\do*documentargument commands, which may be useful later on.

Yes.
Command: "context --arguments=imagedir=../../foo file"
File: "\setupexternalfigures[directory=\env{imagedir}]"

[NTG-context] External graphics directory

2017-10-19 Thread N. Raghavendra 
Is it possible to specify an external graphics directory either as an
environment variable, or as a command line option to `context', instead
of writing `\setupexternalfigures [directory=../../foo]'?  I tried the
environment variable setting

TEXINPUTS=../../foo::

as in http://www.tex.ac.uk/FAQ-graphicspath.html, and the command line
option

--path=../../foo

for `context', but neither works in my Linux environment.  I would like
to avoid cluttering ConTeXt files with system paths.

Thanks and regards,
Raghu.
