Hi Tomas,

I think \letterpercent is what you need.

Inside a little more complex sample:

    \setupinteraction[state=start]
    \unexpanded\def\mypersonalurl#1{%
            \bgroup\tt\goto{\hyphenatedurl{#1}}[url(#1)]\egroup}
    \starttext
    \hsize\zeropoint

\mypersonalurl{http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/03/05/a-former-book-designer-says-good-riddance-to-print/?hpw\letterpercent20hpw}
    \stoptext

Please update the garden (another command is \letterhash), when the
reply solved your problem.

Many thanks (for the update ;-)),

Pablo
