[NTG-context] Delayed expansion of macro?
I need to use a macro like this:
\def\typeSQLfile#1{%
\startsetups header:margin
\framed
[frame=off,
orientation=90,
width=2\leftmarginwidth,
height=\textheight,
align={top,middle}]
{#1\hfil\pagenumber\hfil\IfSQprojectname}
\stopsetups
\typefile[SQL]{#1}}
In the following setting:
\starttext
\typeSQLfile{Library-procedures/details.pls}
\typeSQLfile{Library-procedures/hlx$requery.pls}
\stoptext
This results in two problems;
1. The pagenumber is the same on each page for a file
2. The file name with the $ in it crashes the typefile argument (file
not found), where \typefile itself handles the name OK.
How do I solve these? In LaTeX I would probably use \protect on
\pagenumber.

Adding to this, it also crashes (not only file not found) the TeX job
if there is a _ in the filename (missing $ inserted).
