Sorry, already have found the answer to my question in MetaFun Manual 
(metafun-s).

  Of course not, that's what the wiki is here for.

'reuse' makes smaller pdf files as graphics are only included once; so 
does 'unique' but it uses some heuristics to determine uniqueness

go ahead .. maybe also cleanup that page a bit

A Metapost question

[Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky]

Hello,

a) Can anyone explain me the practical difference between 
\startuseMPgraphic and \startreusableMPgraphic ? Both the former and the 
latter allow to place a picture few times.

b) Does anyone mind if I add "Using in ConTeXt" section to 
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/MetaPost ?

Regards,
Vyatcheslav

Take a look at

%%% snip-->
input TEX ;

pair E[] ; numeric XShift ;

XShift := 3cm ; E1 := (1,13) ; E2 := E1 shifted (XShift,0) ;

beginfig(1);
pickup pencircle scaled 2pt ;
draw E1 ; label.top("E1",E1);
draw E2 ; label.top("E2",E2);

labeloffset := 0 ;

label.bot(
  TEX("$\underbrace{\hbox to " &
  (decimal (xpart (E2-E1))) & "bp{}}$"), 0.5[E1,E2]) ;
endfig;

end
%%%<--snap

The example above is plain MP. Embedded in a ConTeXt document you
should better use the "textext" macro instead of the "TEX" macro from
TEX.mp.

A Metapost question

[Michal Kvasnicka]

Good noon.

I'm sorry that I bother you with an off-topic question, but I know here are 
many Metapost gurus.

I'd like to join two point (E1 and E2) having the same ypart 
(ypart(E1)=ypart(E2)) with the TeX underbrace sign. To do it I have to tell 
TeX (via btex ... etex?) the horizontal distance of the two points. Do you 
know how can I do it?

Many thanks,
M.K.
