\setfootertexts and # of lines

\setfootertexts and # of lines

[Cortjan Koppen]

My goal is to have a footer (on every page and/or only the first page) 
of 4 lines. The three first lines have to be \rightaligned and the last 
line should read exactly as the \setupfootertexts[left][right] works.

The location on the (A4)page of this footer should be the lowest 2cm of 
the paper (because of preprinted logo's on this paper).

I really have tired my CPU running texexec too many times using all kind 
of options and this is the problem (before \starttext I use the line 
\setupfooter[type=small]:

1. I cannot get a second (or more) line in the footer
2. I have tried to replace the commands by \setupbottom(texts) without 
success
3. I cannot get the last (and up to now only) line close to the edge of 
the paper; it is printed 3 cm's above the edge.

Can somebody give some helpful hints please?
