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.

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