indent and blank question

indent and blank question

[frantisek holop]

hi there,

i am working on a book format document using:

\setupindenting[medium,yes]

so the parapgrahps have no whitespace between but the first line
of the next paragraph is indented.

as is customary, i would like to start a new "part" (lacking a better
word) of the same chapter without a title, unrelated to the previous
text but not warranting a new chapter.  some books put some symbols
inbetween these "chapter parts" like three stars or something.

if a put a \blank and start a new paragprah, it gets indented.

i know i can use \noindent to get what i want, but my question is,
is there something more "automatic", a space command which makes
the next paragraph unindented or something?

or for example if i wanted to put the 3 stars there, could i redefine
subject or subsubject to output these _and_ make the next paragprah
unindented?

You can define a "head."
