Hi, I’m trying to “translate” the documentation of “fiziko”* from LaTeX to 
ConTeXt and would like to avoid the doubling of MP code like:

\startMP
    path p;
    p := (0,0){dir(30)}..(5cm, 0)..{dir(30)}(10cm, 0);
    draw brush (p)(2minStrokeWidth*sin(offsetPathLength*pi));
\stopMP

\startMPcode
    path p;
    p := (0,0){dir(30)}..(5cm, 0)..{dir(30)}(10cm, 0);
    draw brush (p)(2minStrokeWidth*sin(offsetPathLength*pi));
\stopMPcode

I’m quite sure there’s a possibility with buffers, but how?

\startbuffer
    path p;
    p := (0,0){dir(30)}..(5cm, 0)..{dir(30)}(10cm, 0);
    draw brush (p)(2minStrokeWidth*sin(offsetPathLength*pi));
\stopbuffer

\typebuffer

... and then how do I get the MP graphic?
