Hi all,
the manual (the "current draft") says that possible parameters for
\definecolor are:
r,g,b,
c,m,y,k,
s,
h,t,a,p,e
While the first three (rgb), the second four (cmyk) and the third one
(s) are pretty obvious for me - rgb, cmyk and greys, I suppose - I'm
wondering what is the use of the others?
Also, do I get it correctly that if I give all r,g,b,c,m,y,k and s, I
will define the same colorname for rgb, cmyk and grey documents, so
that \setupcolors[cmyk=no], \setupcolors[rgb=no] and
\setupcolors[reduction=yes] (or something similar) will choose only the
rgb/cmyk/s components and ignore the others?
Best,

They are explained in the wiki: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Colors
Hans posted also a while ago a list with all parameters and AFAIR a short explanation, search in the mail archive for the message.

Hm, I can't find it there... Only "t" seems to stand for transparency,
and "e" for the postscript color name (or so).

I also couldn't find that; I searched Hans' emails for "color" and
"definecolor", but to no avail, except for that "a" seemingly stands
for "alternative".
Not that this is a serious problem for me, but I'm a bit curious, so
maybe someone could point me to the relevant part in the source and I'd
try to understand it from there?

Didn't think of "shade", but I got that it was gray.

Wow, now it's more clear. Just one question: what are the
"transparency alternatives"?

IIRC, they are documented in the metafun manual.
