If I set up my main file thus:
\starttext
\input title.tex
\input copyright.tex
\startfrontmatter
\completecontent
\chapter{Introduction} 
\stopfrontmatter
\startbodymatter
\input body.tex
\stopbodymatter
\startappendices
\stopappendices
\startbackmatter
\chapter{Index} 
%\chapter{Acknowledgement} 
\title{Colofon} 
\stoptext

and set up my title.tex file thus:

\startstandardmakekup
Foo

\stopstandardmakekup

then "\startstandardmakeup" generates an error. 

I can work around it of course. I just wonder why it happens. The
use of the \input file should be transparent to the rest of TeX.

What error? the primitive \input has some special parsing properties

maybe adding \relax after the filename helps

Hi John,

\startstandardmakeup

I would recommend to use ConTeXts environment, component, product
mechanism. See wiki: project structure.
