there is a (somewhat incomplete) reference definition in xml format so your (b) is in principle covered;

where is it stored?

The english interface is stored in the file cont-en.xml, the path for the file on my system is

/Users/wolf/context/beta/tex/texmf- context/tex/context/interface/cont-en.xml

A PDF with all commands from the files is available here: http://pragma-ade.com/show-man-10.htm

Thanks. Interesting to see what can be found on my PC :-)

You can produce the PDF yourself with "context --global x-set-12.mkiv“.

Unfortunately there isn't even minimal description what the particular command does :-(

The file shows only the syntax of the command, when you want a description of the command you have to writer this yourself. To show which keys and values are available for each command you can load a single one of them from the big file.

And what is the purpose of those localized versions?

ConTeXt has a multilingual interface where you can use dutch, french etc. command names, e.g. \starttext … \stoptext is written as \starttekst … \stoptekst when you use the dutch interface. Wolfgang
