I have an extensive multi-book project. Each book has a nickname, like TB for "Textbook", "WB 1" for the "Workbook, Vol. 1":
WB 4 -- 06_workbook.tex
TG -- 08_teachersguide.tex
I have to prove to a government agency that the content meets several requirements, so I'm giving them a simple file that says something like "Requirement A is met in TB, "Cats", p. 11" basically letting the reader know its in the textbook, section called "Cats", on p. 11. To mark the pages, I'm simply dropping in macros called "\requirementA" "\requirementB" on whichever page of whichever book demonstrates it meets the requirement, then the file will aquatically list the book, section, and page number by searching for that macro.
\define\requirementA{
\reference[markerA]{This is a comment.}
}
\define\requirementB{
\reference[markerB]{This is a comment.}
}
\define\requirementC{
\reference[markerC]{This is a comment.}
}
\starttext

\input knuth
\requirementC

\section{Fish}

I have this sample code, but it only works for a single document, and only displays page number. I tried looking at the \about and other related command, but that requires giving a reference name and referring to the titles, not my dropped macro. How can I modify this to display a message like below, plus also scans the other files. *It only needs to reference the first found occurrence.*
Here is a sample message what the output should give:
"Requirement A is met in WB 3, "Bears", p. 33."
