Sorry Vianney, I don't understand how it works your code. Please can you type
some lines more? Something with

%
% here goes Vianney's code
%
\starttext
\showframe
\dorecurse{40}{\input knuth \par}
\stoptext

Many thanks.

Hello to all of you.

I'm working on a document that must have a layout for the first page and a
different layout for all the other pages.
On this mailing list Hans Hagen said that the technique to set up a layout
for the first page of a document is

\setuplayout[1][key=value, ... ]

I tried that code in this way:

\definelayout[1][% layout for the first page
 backspace=6cm,
 cutspace=6cm,
 width=middle]

\definelayout[% global layout for all the other other pages
 backspace=1cm,
 cutspace=1cm,
 width=middle]

\setuplayout

\starttext
\showframe
\dorecurse{20}{\input dawkins \par \input knuth \par}
\stoptext

this code doesn't work.

Where am I in fault?
