(for efficiency reasons, in s-pre-60 patch):
\def\StartSteps{\iftrialtypesetting\else\ResetStep\NextStep\StartStep\fi}
\def\StopSteps {\iftrialtypesetting\else\StopStep\PrevStep\fi}
\def\FlushStep {\iftrialtypesetting\else\StopStep\NextStep\StartStep\fi}
and then:
\usemodule[pre-61]
\starttext
\StartSteps
\starttabulate
\NC test \FlushStep \NC test \FlushStep \NC \NR
\NC test \FlushStep \NC test \FlushStep \NC \NR
\NC test \FlushStep \NC test \FlushStep \NC \NR
\stoptabulate
\StopSteps
\stoptext

the StartSteps etc gives this for free -)
Implementing al those fancy things is not that complex since most of the
the machinery is available in context for years now, but time ...
(being at a few tex conferences recently and seen prosper in action ...
i don't like presentations all look the same, which is why i prefer to
provide a general solution that can be applied to any style, i also get
the creep of the document source coding some people showed me; so, in
due time i will extend the Stepper (a more complex example is the self
running dante XV presentation -- on out site; which reminds me that i
have to document and post that style)
(personally i more and more tend to clean and sober presentations -)
