Dear List,

is it possible to achieve the following:

First section
.... Some Text

Second section
.... Some Text

Table of Contents
1 First section
2 Second section

(Untested):

\setuphead[section][numbercommand=\gobbleoneargument]

thanks for your answer! This comes close, but has the problem, that the
section head is indented.

\starttext
\setuphead[section][numbercommand=\gobbleoneargument]
\placelist[section]
\section{First section}
\input knuth
\stoptext

Add distance=0pt to the settings.
