the latest versions of texexec generates the format for you, of course you 
can always say:

texexec --make --alone metafun

>(I imagine a design that doesn't look like "Hans was here". ;-)

well, i can't help that i'm not a designer, but the tools are there to make 
something real ncie -)

my little test grid:

\useMPlibrary[pre]
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=pagegrid]
\setupcolors[state=start]

meta-pre should be in any recent version,
