The ConTeXt way is:

\setuptolerance		[{horizontal, verytolerant},{vertical, verystrict}]
scale: verytolerant, tolerant, strict, verystrict
It's a bit more readable than penalties, but not as exact.

I always use grid setting, and there's impossible to avoid *all*
clubs and widows, so a 10000 penalty is of no help.

I used the following in my last book:
\clubpenalty=8000 % keine Schusterjungen
\widowpenalty=8000 % keine Hurenkinder
%\tolerance=1750 % Zeilenumbruch-Toleranz (ca. 500--3000)
%\emergencystretch=10 pt % zus"atzlich ver"anderbarer Raum pro Zeile

I used the emergency stretch (more white space) only in some paragraphs.


Grüßlis vom Hraban!
