Thank you Peter!
Just wondering...
Looking at the files s-mg-01.tex and mag-0000.tex from the context
distribution, there is a different approach. Here I find \usemodule.
What are the differences? And, when use with? Or is it just a metter of
taste?
Boris.

Simply use an environment (file).
Something like...
[content of file 'env-mylayout.tex']
--------
\startenvironment env-mylayout
....your layout settings....
\stopenvironment
--------
Then put the file somewhere in the tex-path
(??/texmf/texmf-local/tex/context/user/ is a good place) and call
texhash/mktexlsr(!), so that context can find it;
Now you can use your layout settings by just typing
\environment env-mylayout
at the beginning of your document (before \starttext).
If the environment is not already defined, then context tries to load a
file with the same name as the environment name (environment foo -->
foo.tex). I just use the prefix 'env-' to seperate the env. files from
the rest in this folder (typescripts, modules, ...).
Hope that helps,
Peter
