Yes, with \asciimode “%” is a normal character but to put comments in your document you can use “%%”.
Does not work on my side. Both percentage signs and the text after it are displayed in my document.
Does this work?
\asciimode
\starttext
% this is visible %% and this is not
\stoptext
When you can read the text after “%%” you need a newer context.
I can read it, but I doubt it that I need a newer ConTeXt. I just this morning executed:
first-setup.bat --context=current --extras=al
It can not be much newer I would think.
ConTeXt ver: 2011.05.18 18:04 MKIV fmt: 2011.8.15 int: english/english
^^^^^^^^^^
You use a ConTeXt from May and comments for asciimode where added in Juli.
I overlooked the first date. :-{
I guess you have TeXLive 2011 installed which interferes with ConTeXt Standalone.
I just checked with my version on Linux, there it works like it should. Now I have to make sure it works also under Windows.
