Is there an equivalent of the amstex *\overset* macro? I couldn't find it in
your articles.

Yes. \overset and \underset were ported to context some months back.
If you have a recent install, both should work.

It doesn't work, so I haven't got it. Can I get the source .tex of \overset
and \underset and use \input instead of reinstalling things? It costed me a
lot of time to get everything work all right, so I am not very eager to risk
spoiling things (I used the ProText cd-rom for Windows).

In context the following plain tex columnscript works all right:
%-- plain tex, Knuth p.232
$$\vbox{\settabs 3\columns
\+This isa srangeexample \cr
\+of displayedthree-columnformat.\cr}$$
%-- /plain tex

In latex it doesn't work. Latex says that \settabs is undefined. Does anyone

in plain.tex (line 602, \def\settabs{\setbox\tabs\null [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
In LaTeX I guess you want to look into the tabbing environment,
Really!. That's really a disadvantage of Latex! I thought Knuth's
primitives plus macro's were together 'plain tex' and thus untouched in both
Context and Latex.
Thanks for your help.

No -- in some cases there are real conflicts, but in this case, you

ConTeXt has the functionality for most of amstex macros. The syntax is
a bit different
