[NTG-context] Processing XML file inside a zip file
Hi, Is it possible to process an XML file inside a zip file without unzipping? In particular, I have a program that generates zip files which look like this: The file `filename.zip` contains: - filename.xml - file_hash1.png - file_hash2.png etc. Where `filename.xml` (the name matches the basename of the zip file) is the main xml file and the `file_hash1.png` etc are png files that are referred to inside the xml file. If I unzip the file and add \setupexternalfigures[directory={path-to-unzipped-folder] then, I have an \startxmlsetups .. \stopxmlsetups environment that correctly typesets the xml file. I believe that I have seen Hans post snippets of code that suggest that context can directly read from a zip file. So, I am wondering if there is a way that I can just call context --magic-flags filename.zip and obtain the correct output. Thanks, Aditya ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
