Hello,

I am trying to implement a similar effect to latex beamer's

\begin{itemize} \item \item \item \end{itemize}

What'd be the equivalent/similar/better of that in ConTeXt?

Apart from JavaScript-based mechanism somebody used to write t-rsteps module long time ago: http://modules.contextgarden.net/t-rsteps which creates multiple slides instead of using JavaScript (the same way as Beamer does, but is probably more primitive).

It worked nicely (I used it several times), but I haven't tested it recently, so I'm not sure if it still works fine with recent ConTeXt versions.

It would be great if \StartSteps, \FlushStep, ... written by Hans would also optionally support creating multiple slides for viewers other than Acrobat.

Not in the short term, i might give it a try some day but I hate mechanisms that interfere with others in unpredictable ways as do such multiple page solutions (references, spacing etc) unless one sticks to predictable structure and wants to patch core macros for this kind of stuff which is not what I like. Also, I've never seen anyone do a presentation with another viewer.
