-\startsection[title=Introduction]

-Numbering is complex and in \CONTEXT\ it's not easy either. This is because we
-not only have 1, 2, 3 \unknown\ but also sub numbers like 1a, 1b, 1ic \unknown\
-or 1.a, 1.b, 1.c \unknown\ There can be many levels, different separators, final
-symbols. As we're talking languages we only discuss conversion here: the
-mechanism that turns a number in for instance a letter. It happens that the
-mapping from a number onto a letter is language dependent. The next lines show
-how English, Spanish and Slovenian numbers:

-You convert a number into a letter with:
-
-\starttyping
-\convertnumber{alphabetic}{15}
-\stoptyping
-
-There is also \type {\uconvertnumber} which does not expand unless typesetting
-is going on. Normally you don't need to bother about this.
-
-The \type {alphabetic} converter adapts to the current main language. When a
-language has no special alphabet, the regular 26 characters are used.
-
-A converter can also convert to a roman numeral, a language specific ordered
-list, a day or month, an ordinal string and again there can be a language
-specific conversion. The general conversion macro takes a conversion name and
-a number. When a conversion can be set (for instance in an itemized list, or in
-section numbering) you can use these names. You can define additional
-converters if needed, as long as the converter can handle a number.
-
-\starttyping
-\defineconversion [alphabetic] [\alphabeticnumerals]
-\stoptyping
-
-Here \type {\alphabeticnumerals} is a converter. If you look into the source of
-\CONTEXT\ you will see that many converters are calling out to \LUA, where we
-have implemented those specific conversions. The following table has long and
-short names. The short one are historic.

-
-The \type {alphabetic} and \type {Alphabetic} converters adapt to slovenian and
-spanish as do their small capped alternatives. There are more general helpers for it
-too:
-
-\starttyping
-\languagecharacters{number}
-\languageCharacters{number}
-\stoptyping
-
-Also language related is the \type {\continuednumber} macro. Here we see an
-application:
-
-\startbuffer
-1 \continuednumber{1}
-1, 2 \continuednumber{2}
-1, 2, 3 \continuednumber{3}
-\stopbuffer
-
-\typebuffer
-
-What renders as:
-
-\startlines[color=maincolor]
-\getbuffer
-\stoplines
-
-Such a macro is typically used in combination with counters ant it just typesets
-a label text depending on the valu ebeing non|-|zero.
-
-\startbuffer
-\setuplabeltext[en][continued={and so on}]
-1, 2, 3 \continuednumber{3}
-1, 2, 3 \convertnumber{continued}{3}
-\stopbuffer
-
-\typebuffer
-
-This gives:
-
-\startlines[color=maincolor]
-\getbuffer
-\stoplines
-
-In the rare case that you want to check if a conversion is defined you can use
-
-\starttyping
-\doifelseconversiondefined{name}{true}{false}
-\stoptyping
-
-So,
-
-\startbuffer
-\doifelseconversiondefined{characters}{we can convert}{forget about it}
-\stopbuffer
-
-\typebuffer
-
-Gives:
-
-\startlines[color=maincolor]
-\getbuffer
-\stoplines
-
-There are also some non language related converters that we mention here for
-completeness:
-
-\blank
-\type {set 0}: \startcolor[maincolor]\dorecurse{20}{\convertnumber{set 0}{#1} }\stopcolor\par
-\type {set 1}: \startcolor[maincolor]\dorecurse{20}{\convertnumber{set 1}{#1} }\stopcolor\par
-\type {set 2}: \startcolor[maincolor]\dorecurse{20}{\convertnumber{set 2}{#1} }\stopcolor\par
-\type {set 3}: \startcolor[maincolor]\dorecurse{20}{\convertnumber{set 3}{#1} }\stopcolor\par
-\blank
-
-When a set overruns we start again at the first element.
-
-The ordinal converter produces output like \color [maincolor] {\convertnumber
-{ordinal}{123}} and \color [maincolor] {\convertnumber {ordinal}{654}}. The
-corresponding string renderer is \type {\highordinalstr}.
-
-% quite limited currently op not documented here:
-%
-% \wordtonumber{two}{3}
-% \wordtonumber{fivethousand}{unknown}

-\startsection[title=Dates]
-
-Dates are also language dependent. The following macros take a number and return
-the name of the month or day.
-
-\starttabulate
-\NC \type {\monthlong } \NC \monthlong {10} \NC \NR
-\NC \type {\monthshort} \NC \monthshort{10} \NC \NR
-\NC \type {\MONTH } \NC \MONTH {10} \NC \NR
-\NC \type {\MONTHLONG } \NC \MONTHLONG {10} \NC \NR
-\NC \type {\MONTHSHORT} \NC \MONTHSHORT{10} \NC \NR
-\NC \type {\weekday } \NC \weekday {5} \NC \NR
-\NC \type {\WEEKDAY } \NC \WEEKDAY {5} \NC \NR
-\stoptabulate
-
-The current date can be typeset with \type {\currentdate} and a
-specific date with \type {\date}, for instance:
-
-\startbuffer
-\currentdate[weekday,day,month,year]
-\currentdate[WEEKDAY,day,MONTH,year]
-\date[d=12,m=12,y=1998][weekday]
-\date[d=12,m=12,y=1998]
-\stopbuffer
-
-\typebuffer
-
-\startlines[color=maincolor]
-\getbuffer
-\stoplines

-Possible elements of the specification are:
-

-\NC + ord \NC ordinal suffix \NC \NR
-\NC ++ highord \NC high ordinal suffix \NC \NR

-There are also some converters built in (more can be added), for instance:
-
-\startbuffer
-The current {\em gregorian} date \currentdate [month, day, {, }, year] is
-in {\em jalali} \currentdate [jalali:to, month, day, {, }, year] but we
-can also as a specific one, so {\em jalali} \date [y=1395, m=4, d=18]
-[month, day, {, }, year] is {\em gregorian} \date [y=1395, m=4, d=18]
-[jalali:from, month, day, {, }, year].
