Hi,
Using MkIV and the latest(?) standalone version.
Continuing "Context an excursion"!
Thanks for your help,
Alain
1) How to force line jump to avoid overfull \hbox,
particularly with more or less narrow columns?
2) I did insert \showlayout just before \stoptext and I get
4 pages with the same information!!!
3) On page 77, I get an error:
\defineparagraphs[city][n=2,before=,after=]
\city Hasselt (Ov) \\ Overijssel \\
\city Hasselt (Li) \\ Limburg \\
\startpacked
\city Hasselt (Ov) \\ The Netherlands \\
\city Hasselt (Li) \\ Belgium \\
\stoppacked
------------------error message

858 \blank
859 The affix is a leftover from the times that the
Netherlands and
860 Belgium were one country under the reign of King
Philip II of Spain.
861 \blank[2*big]
862 Hasselt in Belgium lies in the province of Limburg.
One wonders if
863 the Belgian people write Hasselt (Li) on their letters.

Add \setuptolerance[verytolerant] or \setuptolerance[stretch] (or both settings simultaneously)
to your document to enable font expansion and protrusion.

Make working minimal example of the problems, it takes always time to create one first
to check which something fails.
The problem here is that Hans removed this simple form to use the environment,
what’s possible in MkIV can be seen in the example below (taken form the source).
\defineparagraphs[sample][n=2,rule=on]
\starttext
\startsample
first \nextsample
second \nextsample
third
\stopsample
\startsample
\input tufte \nextsample
\input ward \nextsample
\input davis \nextsample
\input zapf
\stopsample
\startparagraphs[sample]
first \nextsample
second \nextsample
third
\stopparagraphs
\startparagraphs[sample]
\startparagraphscell
first
\stopparagraphscell
\startparagraphscell
second
\stopparagraphscell
\startparagraphscell
third
\stopparagraphscell
\stopparagraphs
\stoptext
