Alan, thanks for this-I didn't know. Unfortunately I don't think 
ConTeXt includes this feature. But I will cross post to the ConTeXt 
list to see.

\usepackage is a LaTeX command that loads a LaTeX package and has 
nothing to do with ConTeXt at all.

What do you like to achieve? Minimal working example!

epstopdf.sty runs (attemps to run)  the epstopdf executable 'inline'

First shot (even untested, sorry):

\def\externalEPSfigure[#1]{%
   \immediate\write18{epstopdf #1}%
   \externalfigure[#1]%
}

How does a command make texexec/texutil invoke a command in case
\write18 has not been enabled?

\expanded{\installprogram{pstopdf \appliedfigurefullname}}
