Hello!

I think this is more a TeX question than a ConTeXt one, but I do not know
how to handle it.
Suppose I want to have a chapter heading written in upper case, but the
space between the letters to be a little larger than the usual space (from
the kerning). In Word (ugh...) and other visual word processors there is a
possibility to specify the spacing between the letters. e.g.: H E L L O   W
O R L D.

Is there any posibility to make a macro something like this:
\letterspace{Hello world}{0.3em}?
