Marco,

Thank you, I have opted for your solution as it was the one I most easily understood and it seems to do the job. One thing, though, it turns out the #pageno variable does not seem to work. I had to rename it to #1 to do the trick. Even #p did not work. Do those variables have to be numbers? Here is what worked in the end:

\setuppagenumbering[
	alternative=doublesided,
	location={header, margin},
	style=bold,
	command=\PageNumberCommand
]

\starttexdefinition PageNumberCommand #1
 \doifoddpageelse
   {\rightaligned{#1}}
   {\leftaligned{#1}}
\stoptexdefinition

Thank you again.
Malte.
