Reporting here is faster. Can (lazy me) Wolfgang confirm the issue?
1. Wrong date
The \date command has wrong/weird grouping which makes global changes
for the day, month and year.
\permanent\tolerant\protected\def\date[#1]#*[#2]%
{\dontleavehmode
\ifparameter#1\or
\begingroup
\letdummyparameter\c!d\normalday
\letdummyparameter\c!m\normalmonth
\letdummyparameter\c!y\normalyear
\getdummyparameters[#1]%
\normalexpanded
{\endgroup
\normalday \number\directdummyparameter\c!d\relax
\normalmonth\number\directdummyparameter\c!m\relax
\normalyear \number\directdummyparameter\c!y\relax}%
\fi
...}
2. Missing space
When not all optional arguments are used the space after the last given
argument is gobbled. This was normal behavior for a long time until you
changed the code in MkIV to keep them.
\tolerant\def\foo[#1]#*[#2]%
{[#1][#2]}
\starttext
a \foo [1] b
a \foo [1] [2] b
\stoptext

Wrong, I need \startTEXpage

Now, how can I forward options from
\starttix[anything]

[NTG-context] understanding \startTEXpage
Hi, According to https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/startTEXpage it "starts a page that fits its contents exactly". But it seems, that part of the content is cropped here: \startTEXpage X \hskip20cm X \stopTEXpage No problem with 10cm instead of 20cm... Is this a bug or expected behaviour?
