Hello,
I agree with the idea that documentation of ConTeXt's commands and parameters is rather incomplete. I'm wondering if it's possible to have a documentation system like Java's Javadoc. We can put comments just before commands definitions and use a little preprocessor written in Perl or Python that parse TeX files in order to build a ConTeXt documentation like the manual titled "ConTeXt commands". I'm looking forward your opinion about this.

That's the one big problem with ConTeXt, it's most of the tim ea matter of trial and error and a difficult process of trial and error even. Documentation often does only mentions the existence of something without an explanation (arguments to commands are seldomly adequately explained). I have been fighting with layout parameters yesterday for a document I needed to keep within one page. > I'm sure there is a (context-)way (but I have not used this command > 'til today). Someone should fund Hans for writing true documentation.
