That should have been:
As Hans' mentioned, use:
\startasciimode
\footnote{\type{%APPDATA%\file.txt}}
\stopasciimode
In a longer document setting \asciimode at the begin can be the better
solution.
The reason why setting \asciimode in the \footnote doesn't work is that
TeX uses
uses the meaning of a special character it had when it read the
argument, i.e.
when TeX reads the text "%APPDATA%\file.txt" the percent sign acts as
begin of
a comment and everything after it is ignored. As a result the asciimode
command
can't work because the text has already disappeared.
Other characters like $ are less problematic because there are ways to
change
their meaning afterwards (# can be tricky) but not comments because
nothing remains.
\setupbuffer
[before=\blank,
after=\blank]
\starttext
Normal comment:
\startbuffer
% comment
\stopbuffer
\typebuffer \getbuffer
Comment in \type{asciimode} environment:
\startbuffer
\startasciimode
% comment
\stopasciimode
\stopbuffer
\typebuffer \getbuffer
Comment in the argument of a command:
\startbuffer
\firstofoneargument
{
% comment
}
\stopbuffer
\typebuffer \getbuffer
Comment in the argument of a command + \type{asciimode} in the argument:
\startbuffer
\firstofoneargument
{
\startasciimode
% comment
\stopasciimode
}
\stopbuffer
\typebuffer \getbuffer
Comment in a argument after \type{asciimode} was enabled:
\startbuffer
\startasciimode
\firstofoneargument
{
% comment
}
\stopasciimode
\stopbuffer
\typebuffer \getbuffer
\stoptext
