Hello,

In the ConTeXt manuales there is a reference to \definesomething as a
way to create new commands(?)/variables(?). The truth is that I
haven't bee able to truly understand if this is a generic example or I
can define my own commands with this and how the syntax would be used.
I would appreciate if anyone can clarify this to me.

Thanks,
Pepe
