Cool! Neat factsheet to print out, if you give a workshop about ConTeXt.
I am looking for a small text explaining the naming system of the commands, because I only partly understand the interdependence of eg. singular and plural commands.
mostly historic (we don't want to drop compatibility)
What is the difference of singular and plural commands like \setupfloat and \setupfloats. Does the singular always inherit from the plural? And why?
in most cases they're synonyms
I have a limited understanding of the \defineX \setupX and \X line, but would love to hear more.
just try one command, say \defineframed \setupframed ... the concepts are the same (only a few commands for practical reasons behave different)
And lately I often see here that setups are named like "foo:bar". What is the meaning of the double colon?
variants (same command, different options) or instances
So what I would often need is a How-to-read-the-setup-en-pdf.
