Oops, that doesn't look right at all.
Do you really need column sets, or is "normal" columns mode ok as well?
1) Yes, column sets would be better.
\startcolumns[n=2] \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte\footnote{\input ward \relax}} \stopcolumns
Looks about right.

2) When I try ... \setupfootnotes[n=3] \starttext \startcolumns[n=2] \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte\footnote{\input ward \relax}} \stopcolumns \stoptext at the bottom of page 1 there is a lot of white space before the footnote text of footnote 1-4 (the footnotemarkers 1 to 4 come up the next page). So in this example it doesn't seem to be possible to keep footnote markers and text at the same page: Wouldn't it be better in this case to fill page 1 also with the footnote text of the following footnotes? In this way the pages would look much better. Is there a way (penalty?) to express how *urgent* footnote markers and text need to be forced to the same page? Or - in other words - to loosen the connection? Thanks, Steffen
