I just became aware of the fact that a comma in a directory name like
"dir, so-and-so" is failing too. No doubt there will be others that
are allowed in those names but resist \setupexternalfigures. I guess I
will have to live with that. Though Hans might feel tempted to sort it
out once and for all.....

Thanks Hans. That does the trick.
Odd by the way, that so many people apparently refrain from using
spaces in directory and file names, because this did not surface
earlier. It can make things a lot more readable. The habit of
avoiding spaces is probably a holdover from old times where OS's
were much more restrictive in filenaming. I reckon the next beta
will contain this patch, so that I don't have to go through patching
hassles when installing a new version.

Hi Hans,
The following works for me both with mkii and mkiv (running Mac
OS X
10.6.2).
Yes, I knew that. Adding the full path inside the \externalfigure
works.
But I would like to access picture files by separately adressing
directory and filename, not combining them explicitely.
\setupexternalfigures[directory=..] was made for this. The annoying
thing is that \setupexternalfigures and \externalfigure apparently
do
not work seamlessly together.
well, it's not deliberately .. just that i never use paths with
spaces in tex workflows so it never got tested
in grph-inc.lua patch the gmatch pattern:
if h[iv["global"]] then
for s in gmatch(pathlist,",* *([^,]+)") do
if not table.contains(t,s) then
t[#t+1] = s
end
end
end
