Hi Hans, Thanks for this new feature for passing optional flags to the mkiv engine: I tested it on TeXShop and from a Terminal command line, and evrything works as expected. I wikified your instructions, http://wiki.contextgarden.net/purge_aux_files but I wonder whether I chose the right title for that page (purge aux files).
