\setupinteraction[state=start]

\placebookmarks[chapter,section]

\starttext

\chapter{test\getvalue{letterunderscore}chapter}

The underscore character needs to be escaped in certain situations.

\chapter{start\getvalue{letterbar}stop}

So does the pipe symbol.

\chapter{foo}
\section{bar}

\stoptext
