Letter environment

Letter environment

[Dan Seracu]

Hello!

I am trying to create a letter environment and I imagine to be something
like that:

\setupletter[name={TUG}, fromaddress={Broadway, New Yorlk}]

\startletter[to={NTG ConTeXt},
toaddress={Holland},opening={Hi!},closing={Bye}]

\input{tufte}

\stopletter

Now the question: Is there any documentation on how to do this? I tried to
browse the epigraph module but it would be better a short description on how
to work with \getvalue etc.

The epigraph module is probably not the answer. I'm trying to
create a module with more extended configuration options,
(eXtended DESCriptions), of which epigraph will become a subset.
Have a look at the attached file. I'm extremely anxious to hear
comments suggestions etc.

\setvariables [LETTER] [name=TUG,....]

bla bla \getvariable{LETTER}{name} bla bla

Actually, I do have a letter style, but not documented; hooks quite well 
into logo space and mail merge [right, it's in there but not documented]

Hello again!

Looks interesting. I will try to locate that letter style and browse a
little through it.
