Thanx Henri for answer.
Maybe I have been explaining wrong my problem. I would need a variant without a
parameter and concurrently without braces. Command without braces swallows the
break of the paragraph.
\def\Command#1%
{\expdoifelse{#1}{}{100}{#1}}
\starttext
1. \Command{5} % OK
2. \Command % OK
3. As You see, Command without braces swallows the break of the paragraph.
1. \dorecurse{\Command{5}}{\recurselevel\crlf} % not working
2. \dorecurse{\Command{}}{\recurselevel\crlf} % not working
\stoptext

The first argument to \dorecurse has to expand to a number. Therefore it
has to be fully-
expandable. Scanning for optional brackets is never expandable. You have
to do it this way:
\def\Command#1%
{\expdoifelse{#1}{}{100}{#1}}
\starttext
1. \Command{5} % OK
2. \Command{} % OK
1. \dorecurse{\Command{5}}{\recurselevel\crlf} % not working
2. \dorecurse{\Command{}}{\recurselevel\crlf} % not working
