[NTG-context] Command line tool for macro definitions

21 Jul 2016

      Dear list,

For TeX/LaTeX users there is the neat command line tool `texdef` with
which you can show the definition of a macro.  Here an example:

$ texdef -t latex section

\section:
\long macro:->\@startsection {section}{1}{\z@ }{-3.5ex \@plus -1ex
\@minus -.2ex}{2.3ex \@plus .2ex}{\normalfont \Large \bfseries }

Is there something similar for ConTeXt?  It is quite tedious to either
grep the full source or setup an extra dummy document to use \show or
\meaning.

Cheers, Henri
