Hi,

Is there any option for setting the verbosity of context?
In LaTeX, if someone passes an optional argument to command, it stops. 
In ConTeXt, if you put \somecommand[optional-non-existent-option] it 
runs and you then, when see pdf, know that it does not run.

Any option for stopping in that case?

Xan.

Sorry but this sentence makes no sense, when this would be true LaTeX  
people
can't pass any optional arguments because they will never get a  
document :)

That's another sentence useless sentence.

MkIV has a feature to report unknown 'keys' for command on the command  
line
(e.g. key 'x' for 'y' is not defined) but the core macros are not  
adapted to this
and only the letter module supports this (without guarantee).
