Hello Johan.
I wonder whether it would be better to have a list of telephone numbers 
in an external file (eg csv file) that can handle aplication such as 
Excel or Calc. The list is sorted by this instrument and ConTeXt would 
just typed data from external file. For practical reasons it would be 
better to have that list in an external file.
I do these things with my scancsv.lua tool. Now I finishing module for 
ConTeXt.
