Purpose, aim (9)

Ross

I think it could be either:

Which length description are you looking for?:

6

9

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'purpose' is the first definition.
(I know that purpose can be written as intent)

'aim' is the second definition.
(I know that aim can be written as intent)

(Other definitions for intent that I've seen before include "Committed" , "Objective" , "'Engrossed, absorbed (6)'" , "Bent on, resolved" , "'Purpose, aim (6)'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
