Actually, I cannot figure out how \writetolist works. According to https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/writetolist, the 2nd argument is the "number". But, for some reason, the list number doesn't show in placelist:
\definelist[test]
\starttext
\placelist[test][criterium=all, alternative=b]
\writetolist[test]{1}{One}
\writetolist[test]{2}{Two}
\stoptext
This gives
One 1
Two 1
while I was expecting
1 One 1
2 Two 1
What am I missing?
Thanks,
Aditya
