Hi Hans,
Another small issue with the new beta (ConTeXt ver: 2012.02.16 13:05 MKIV):
the key « location= hanging » does not work anymore in enumerations.
Minimal example:
%%%%%%
\defineenumeration[Exo]
[location=hanging,
width=fit,
text={Exercise },
stopper={.}]
\starttext
\startExo This is a test: this line should not be below « Exercise 1. »\dots
\stopExo
\stoptext
%%%%%
Best regards: OK
