Hi,
I want a line to separate the header from the text body. Now if I say
\setupheader[after=\textrule]
the line starts in the margin. The length is the width of the text
(which is ok). The same happens with a \hairline.
Any suggestions on how I can make the line span just the text
block?
Thanks,
Peter

\setupbackgrounds[header][text][frame=on,topframe=off,leftframe=off,rightframe=off]
\setuplayout[header=18pt,headerdistance=12pt]

Hi all,
I'm a regular user of LaTeX, (even an advanced one, I may say).
Recently I was intrigued by ConTeXt. I knew ConTeXt time ago, and I
was always impressed by its apparent flexibilty, simplicity and the
good results t produced. However, I was afraid of trying it,
because I'm Spanish, and I thought that ConTeXt will not have as
good support as LaTeX for the spanish language.
Recently, I decided finally to download ConTeXt and give it a try.
After a few days reading the (excellent) documentation and trying some
examples, I finally discovered that ConTeXt has a good Spanish
support. That was great!
I have to write a PhD thesis, and I'm considering switching to
ConTeXt for doing this, however I'm a bit afraid of doing so. My
main concerns are the support for BibTeX and for high
mathematics typesetting.
If I'm not wrong, ConTeXt is based in Plain TeX, so I wonder if I can
use AMSTeX with ConTeXt. Which would be your advise?
Thank you for any answer, and please, excuse my english.
Best Regards,
--

Hi,
there is a biblography module under development, have a look at
http://www.elvenkind.com/~taco/bibmod/
It's still a bit alpha, but very good.

Why doesn't Peter's solution work? It is the first that a new
user will think about (well, I did, at least :-). And the rules
really are something that logically belongs to the header, not
to the background. For example, when you start a new chapter,
and switch off the header on its first page, then you want the
rule to disappear as well, and not to switch it off separately
by changing the state of the background. (By the way, how would
that work? Can you give a \setuphead solution?)

Hi,
Sorry to bump this very old thread, but I've searched a long time to
find this solution :
\setupheader[text][after=\hrule height 1pt]
Hope it helps
Bob
