Glossary provides the quick orientation in the ConTeXt language. Linked terms will take you around this glossary. External links are added to the most appropriate term. For command description use texshow. Users are welcome to add terms and its definitions.
item template
- Template for the item in the glossary.
- Definitions can link to commands in texshow (eg. \clonefield) and pages in contextgarden (eg. Table).

version tag
- ConTeXt versioning system unvisible to the users (user interface is the same), distinguishing the developement of ConTeXt low level interface and the use of different TeX engines. Most of the files are same for all versions, but some of them (fonts, encodings, file handling) may be different and they come with different suffixes (
somefile.mkii
,somefile.mkiv
). Read more on internal versioning in ConTeXt, mkii & mkiv. - See: mki, mkii, mkiii, mkiv
