Template from latex to context

Template from latex to context

[Xan]

Hi,

I'm new in context. By now I don't start typing ConTeXt long texts, but 
now I want to start with one post-graduate work....

Sorry for the oversimplification, but I see ConTexT like LaTeX but with 
coherence (no conflict among modules) and more customization.

I would like to know if there is a "template" for having the same 
results in context than in latex. I refer for example in style of page 
(margins, etc), style of chapters (for example 
"\setuphead[chapter][style=\tfd]"), etc. It could be useful for 
migration from latex to context having such file that specifies the 
styles normally use in latex. So latex user simply have to learn new syntax.

I want to clear that I don't want to make ConTeXt like LaTeX (these are 
different, I know) else define the styles in ConTeXt than LaTeX users 
usually find.

Thanks a lot,
Xan.

Hi, Xan,

Can LaTeX2ConTeXt (http://www.berenddeboer.net/tex/LaTeX2ConTeXt.pdf) help you?

In addition, you can get a lot of things from
