Hi and thanks for your help.

it works except that when the sidenote is too long it overflows the page. Is there a way to make the note continuing on the next page if it doesn't fit?

Thanks again,

Alex

Hi again,

is there a way to typeset footnotes in the margin, but placed at the same 
vertical distance as the text they refer to?

No, but you can combine \inmargin and a counter:

\usemodule[annotation]

\define[2]\SidenoteCommand
   {\rawnumber[sidenote]%
    \inright{#1: #2}}

\defineannotation
   [sidenote]
   [alternative=command,
    command=\SidenoteCommand,
    number=yes]

\starttext

text text\sidenote{this is a note} text text

\input knuth

text text\sidenote{this is a note} text text

\stoptext

Wolfgang
