[NTG-context] formatting verse
I've looked on the wiki and in the manuals for an equivalent to LaTeX's \begin{verse} environment. I found a macro in a file on the wiki, but the definition of it seems to be obsolete.

[NTG-context] can I upgrade yet?
Some months ago I stopped upgrading ConTeXt. Here and there I saw references to new file hierarchies, and something about installation scripts ... if I remember correctly. I didn't want to break my system, so I just stopped upgrading, and stopped reading those messages (which I didn't understand, anyway). I'm currently using MikTeX. 1.) Concerning file hierarchy: did something monumental indeed ocurr that I ignored? 2.) If so, is it safe to upgrade? 3.) Is there some other way besides my traditional method of unzipping cont-tmf.zip file into /localtexmf ? Do I need to rebuild the file system? 4.) Have I misinterpreted, and nothing much has changed?

For example, consider the \definestartstop command, which I was recently looking at. * In the cont-enp.pdf manual, it's not mentioned. * In the mp-cp-en.pdf manual, there's an example of it, but it's not really very clear what the difference is between what the commands= and before= options do. In addition, there's no indication whether these are all the possible options or not, or whether there's any way to define a start/stop pair that takes an argument. * In the source, I can find the definitions, but for that particular one there seems to be very little commentary, and I also suspect I'd need to be rather familiar with the ConTeXt core before I could understand it -- I certainly can't see where the before= goes in, for instance. And that's about all I know about, other than doing a Google search on the mailing-list archives, which rarely addresses the general stuff.
