I'm still trying to understand some ConTeXt ways of doing things, being a kind of LaTeX native myself. I bought the context-fonts manual, but still can't figure out how to implement a macro that does the simple(?) following, especially item 3:
1. Make #1 uppercase [OK, in simple situations I could just type the uppercase letters] 2. change #1's color to xxx [not a problem] 3. apply an amount of letterspacing to the capitalized #1 that I can specify myself.
Maybe I'm only using the wrong search term, maybe the letterspace feature is well hidden in the documentation, maybe it doesn't exist: I simply don't know and don't see a way to find out. \stretched is not an answer.
