Hallo,
I have updated context and the letter module to
ConTeXt ver: 2012.12.06 22:36 MKIV fmt: 2012.12.8 int:
english/english
Problem: My letters do not work anymore.
I have found that
\setlettervalue{tax}[Steuer]{xxx}
is one of the problems. I have to use \setupletter[tax=xxx] instead.
I have to lock for then tax renaming.
Now the letter is compiling, but it is completly broken.
In the log I have found a lot of lines
setup > error in line 20, namespace "553", instance
"letter", key "frame"
setup > error in line 58, namespace "539", instance
"letter", key "invoice"
setup > error in line 58, namespace "539", instance
"letter", key "date"
setup > error in line 58, namespace "539", instance
"letter", key "phone"
setup > error in line 58, namespace "539", instance
"letter", key "tax"
I have the impression, that there has a lot changed.
How can I fix this temporary? (I have to write my letter NOW!)
Wolfgang

I removed the \setlettervalue command because it was too LaTeX like.
To set values for the letter use the \setupletter command, e.g. \setupletter[name=…,phone=…] etc.
For the labels of these values you have to use the \setuplettertext command which has like \setuplabeltext a optional argument where you can set different text for certain languages, e.g. \setuplettertext[tax=Tax] or \setuplettertext[de][tex=Steuer].

The old \setupletterstyle command was split in many different commands because it was too complicated and slow to make everything with one command.

You can send a me a example off-list.

Some things have changed internally but the documentation hasn't been
updated.

Thanks Henri,
but is there a way to use a different background on page 2?
I found \v!firstpage and \v!secondpage in the sources but didn't found a way to use them in my letter.
