Could you please elaborate on the (automatic?) data flow from ConTeXt's source files to data files for each application? Is it: source code -> XML -> .lua -> mtx-interface -> data? In particular, it is not clear to me how i-*.xml files are related to mtx-interface, as the latter does not use them directly, AFAICS. Anyway, mtx-interface seems exactly what I am looking for, and I would like to use it to generate ConTeXt keywords for Vim. Can I patch that script? For MetaFun keywords I don't know yet: do those XML files contain enough information about the content of all mp-* source files? E.g., the fact that `hlingrid` is a def? Looking at the Scite files, I see only internals and commands, and they seem to cover only the "main" MetaFun names. I have used a custom script in the past for fine-grained keyword extraction from MetaFun's source code. By fine-grained, I mean that the output contains information about the kind of keyword (def, primary def, vardef, constant, variable, etc.) I could update it to Lua and mp-*.mpxl if that interests you—unless that has already been done, of course.
