Hello Hans,
Yes, I also like one file per command, it's easier to manage.

For looking up something, I often open big pdf-files (> 1000 pages), and
the size doesn't matter. But for printing it, I agree. If someone really
wants to print it on A4, the font size must be small and it must be
2-column layout.

Thanks for the advice. This is good, because I don't have any experience
with xml.

No output:
\usemodule[set-11] \loadsetups % from contextref-env.tex (context-manual)
\starttext
\showsetup{startproject} % from co-documents.tex (context-manual)
\stoptext

Yes, it'll take a long time (I can spend only 2-3 hours per week...).
So what about:
- a new directory
"http://foundry.supelec.fr/svn/contextman/context-commands";
- one tex-file per command
?
If you agree, I just start.
Cheers, Peter
