[NTG-context] startbuffer fails with %
\startbuffer[ABC]% {} Braces at beginning fails with buffer \stopbuffer \starttext \getbuffer[ABC] \stoptext Error message: ! File ended while scanning use of \dododowithbuffer. \par Remove the {}'s at the beginning and all is well. The culprit however is the % in the first line; remove and the braces do no harm. I suspect that a missed newline is the cause. If that cannot be remedied, I advise adding a warning in the manual.

[NTG-context] What is the luatex version of \pdfescapehex
Hi, I've written a very old module which used a lot of pdf primitives like \pdfescapehex and \pdfescapename etc. and it turns out not they don't work in mkiv.

I also notice the difference between resulted pdf files produced by MKII and MKIV: MKIV gives labels _below_ line respect to item entry but MKII gives labels on the same line as item entry (also MKIV moves labels much more to left edge).

[NTG-context] Referencing...
Hi, I have small tabulations which contain references to footnotes in the header line. - The footnotes are placed correctly, how ever if I refer to the references I get in 2 out of the three cases ?? i.e. ConTeXt does not know the reference. I am puzzled because it works for the third reference... When extending the list of footnotes again the referencing works only for the last reference.

Vladimir, I am not sure that the settings are incorrect. Why does it work with MKII then? Also it worked with MKIV before. It broke only recently. Can someone please throw light on this? Is the disapperance of the numbers, as Vladimir suggests, expected behavior of the minimal example in MKIV.
