I guess the standard activation of that mechanism is 'bychapter', so
there is no initialisation (withount a \chapter). If you use
"way=bytext" it should (hopefully) work.


This is taken from my letter environment. It's from 2003 and I don't
remember any details...


\def\MySubpagerange#1{%
  \ifnum\nofsubpages>1
    \ifnum\numexpr\subpageno+1\relax<\nofsubpages
     {\ss\tfx\the\numexpr\subpageno+1\relax\,-\,\nofsubpages}
    \else
      \ifnum\numexpr\subpageno+1\relax=\nofsubpages\relax
        {\ss\tfx\nofsubpages}\fi
    \fi
  \fi
}

% show subpagenumber in the right footer margin, if more than one page
is used
\setuppagenumbering[
   location={footer,margin},
   command=\MySubpagerange,
  ]

\setupsubpagenumber[way=bytext]

% show (sub)pagenumber in header ( no pagenumber at page 1)
\setupheadertexts[{\ifnum\subpageno>1 \the\subpageno\fi}]
\setupheader[style=small, state=high]

It's only a counter, so (if there is no parameter support for your
environment) you are free to reset it whenever you want.
Just add some code to the 'before|after' parameter of front|bodymatter.
