Hello,
I'm just beginning with ConTeXt, and thus I tried to do a thing that in
LaTeX was very easy to do (using an appropriate package blah blah blah):
redefining the appearence of the sectioning commands. More precisely, I want
them to appear like
Chapter <number>
<chapter title>
both being centered horizontally, with appropriate spacing, "Chapter
<number>" in small caps, \tfa (I use "real" small caps, and they seem to
work properly :->), and <chapter title> written in bolf, \tfb. So I tried
\def\ChapterHead#1#2{{\tfa \cap{Chapter #1}}\crlf{\tfb \bf #2}}
(left the centering for the second step), without luck: \crlf doesn't (seem
to) work, the chapter number is too big (even with {{\tfa\cap{Chapter}}#1}),
and the chapter title is not boldfaced. So
1) how do I make the "newline" with appropriate spacing? I did it in a
second experiment by \hboxing the contents; is there some other way?
2) how do I get a properly dimensioned chapter number?
3) how do I get the proper font to the chapter title?
4) (since we're at it) how do I center it all?

\def\ChapterHead#1#2{\vbox{#1\vskip12pt#1}} % you may add: \raggedcenter
\setuphead
[chapter]
[command=\ChapterHead,
allign=middle,
numberstyle=\bfa,
textstyle=\tfa]
\setuplabeltext[en][chapter=Chapter ] % given that your main language is en
So, fonts are passed automatically, and you should use a \vbox.
