I want to put my documentname somewhere, but headers and footers are
allready used. 

Is there a way to put it in the bottom left margin, rotated? I want to
put it at the lefmost printable area.

It's not important for anything (except iso :), so it' should be as
out-of-sight as possible.

Any ideas?

Cheers, Mathias

-----------------------
%output=pdf
\defineoverlay[thejob][{\rotate{\tfxx\jobname}}]
%\defineoverlay[thejob][{\tfxx\jobname}]
\setupbackgrounds[footer][leftmargin][background=thejob]
\starttext
\dorecurse{6}{\input tufte}
\stoptext
--------------------------

see the manual for additional positioning info.

Patrick, who really likes overlays...

another way is to (mis)use the bottom areas

\setuplayout[bottom=1cm,bottomdistance=.5cm]

\setupbottomtexts[this document has a name]

also there is the \version[concept] command
