I'd particularly appreciate any comments on the \newcommand and counters implementations -- those are in the t-ltcmds and t-ltcnts modules, though \newcommand also depends on t-lterrs and t-ltbase.
i just took a quick look at the code; if you run into tricky definitions, let me know, often there are either already low level macros that do the job, or i can add some stuff;
Thanks! I'll probably have lots of questions as I go along -- this is certainly becoming a tour of the internals of both systems.
btw, i renamed the internal \end macro so that you can get away from stoptext refinitions (too messy)
Yeah, the \stoptext redefinition was one of the first pieces I wrote, nearly a year ago. The reason I was doing the \stoptext redefinition wasn't the internal \end macro (which didn't exist then, I think) -- it was that the ConTeXt version I used then didn't have an \everystoptext hook. But now that it exists, I can just use it. One other question I have right now: what's a good way to duplicate LaTeX's \vspace macro (which is effectively a \vskip inside), without causing the problems that the ConTeXt manual warns about if we use \vskip? - Brooks
