Hi:
How can I get more readable source files? I want to look into the ConTeXt
code, but the files aren't that readable (no line breaks).

Oh, that is the problem... the source files have \n as a line
break. (Which is ok on unix systems). You can either get a viewer that
supports \n (and not \n\r, what system are you using?) as a line break
or copy the files you want to read into a seperate directory and run
texexec --module file-nam.tex
and you get a dvi/pdf file with a nicely formatted source code and
perhaps some examples. Warning: sometimes this could fail. If so, please
report those files to Hans. Ok, before I forget: you need the `nl'
format.
