Page Numbers in TOC; setuplabeltext

Page Numbers in TOC; setuplabeltext

[Neal Lester]

In the table of context for my documents, I would like Chapters to 
have page numbers with alternative=c.  However, my Appendices are not 
paginated so I do not want them to have page numbers in the TOC. 
Since (apparently), Appendix inherits from Chapter, each Appendix is 
listed in the TOC with leading dots and page number "0" regardless of 
what I put in \setuplist [appendix] when using \placecontent or 
\completecontent.

So I tried creating my own head (based on title) and list.  Placing 
this list under the TOC gives me the effect I want (Appendices are 
listed without dots or page numbers).  Unfortunately, setuplabeltext 
doesn't seem to work on my newly defined head.  I've tried all manner 
of variations like:

\definelist [myappendixlist]
\setuplist [myappendixlist] 
[pagenumber=no,alternative=b,label=yes,conversion=Character]

\definehead[myappendix][title]
\def\appendixlabel#1#2{Appendix #1: #2}
\setuphead[myappendix][command=\appendixlabel]
%
\setuplabeltext [en][myappendix=Appendix~]

\newcounter\myappendices

\long\def\myappendix#1%
    {\ifhmode\unskip\fi
     \doglobal\increment\myappendices\relax
     \high{\myappendices}%
     \expanded{\writetolist[myappendixlist]{\myappendices}}{#1}}


1) Is there a way to suppress the display of Appendix page numbers in 
a TOC while retaining alternative=c for Chapters?

2) Assuming the answer to (1) is no, how do I enable display of 
labels in my custom defined head?

Thanks, Neal

3) How can I make the numbers in myappendixlist appear as A B C (as 
Appendix does) instead of 1, 2, 3

Sorry about the second post!

I got the effect I wanted by hijacking subsubsection and subsubsubsection.

Is there a way to change the subsubsubsection numbers to letters?

\setupsection[section-6][bodypartconversion=Character] should do the 
trick

section-1 corresponds to part, section-2 to chapter, and so on.
