I am just wondering if this is a bug or feature or some lack of
understanding on my part. The horizontal list turns into a vertical
list inside a framedtext environment. The same happens in a background
environment.
\starttext
\startframedtext[width=\textwidth]
\startitemize[5, columns, four]
\item Excellent student \item Good student \item Mediocre student
\item Poor student
\stopitemize
\stopframedtext
\stoptext

Hi Hamid,
this can not work because itemize use for the column option the normal
column environment. I wrote a example that shows the problem and gives
also a solution.
\starttext
\vbox{\hsize=\textwidth
\startsimplecolumns
\input knuth
\stopsimplecolumns}
\blank
\vbox{\hsize=\textwidth
\startcolumns
\input knuth
\stopcolumns}
\stoptext
The second column environment use the output routine to split the content
and is only activated at outer level.
A solution would be to include a test inside itemgroup whether we use
itemize at outer level or inside a box.
Wolfgang

[explanation and example deleted]
I attached a patched version of the itemgroup macros and it works for me.

Hi Wolfgang,
Thanks for your explanation and patch. I appreciate it.
However, with the patch, now I have the problem of correct indentation.
As this example shows:
\input core-itm-patch
\starttext
Consider\par
\startframedtext[width=\textwidth]
\startitemize[n][style=bold]
\item As a college student, how do you rate yourself?
\startitemize[5, columns, two]
\item Excellent student \item Good student \item Mediocre student
\item Poor student
\stopitemize
\stopitemize
\stopframedtext
versus\par
\startitemize[n][style=bold]
\item As a college student, how do you rate yourself?
\startitemize[5, columns, two]
\item Excellent student \item Good student \item Mediocre student
\item Poor student
\stopitemize
\stopitemize
\stoptext
Thanks,
-Hamid

Thank you, Hans, for directing me to use streams. Not only it takes
care of this problem it also shows me how to do some other stuff that
I had struggled with.
