Great. This works. Now for something different. While learning ConTeXt,
I find that often the syntax escapes me. Take for instance:
> \definecolumnset[example][n=2]
>
> \define[1]\MargText{%
> \ifodd\mofcolumns{%
> \inleft{#1}}
> \else
> {\inright{#1}}\fi}

What does [local] mean here? According the the manual one should say
\column and I can't find the explanation of what local means or what
you are doing here.
