 A bit of help, please.
 
 I currently have a chunk at the start of a text file, like this
 
 \setvariables
  [Path]
  [Thread={Ee_01_PN},
 
  .
 
   Mode=full]
 \stopbuffer
 
 I invoke the file with
 
 context  filename.tex
 
 Is there a way to pass the value of the variable to context on invocation?
 
 So the top of the header might read:
 
 
 \setvariables
  [Path]
  [Thread={Ee_01_PN},
 
  .
 
   ]
 \stopbuffer
 
 And the invocation:
 
 context  filename.tex (bit of magic) Mode=full
 
 If so, I could use this a few times...it's not a big deal but would
 mean I could prepare some fixed command files, rather than a search
 and replace for Mode=full to Mode=light through al the text files
 called by this kind of invocation.
