The dropped caps might need some fine tuning.

I haven't seen anything like varioref in ConTeXt. For those who don't know LaTeX: it create a reference like "See fig. 3 on the following page" from a single command (See fig.~\vref{fig:myfig}.). I never looked into ledmac and alike, so I have no idea if this is available in ConTeXt. Patrick -- (moving soon:) texshow-web: http://members.ping.de:8061 ConTeXt wiki: http://members.ping.de:8062
