BTW this is why I asked for a complete working example of a document. It would form a template or road map showing the most ocmmonly needed commands and how they are used. The very brief document ``example.tex'' does this for pdftex. Context is much more elaborate but surely something could be worked out. Eventually I will end up with my own template. But such a venture could help me and all the other newbies get to that point and reduce the number of questions. Perhaps the existing manuals are too complex to use as examples. But surely the source for e.g., ``Fonts in Context'' would serve as a shorter but still useful example? For your consideration. >
