Gummi is a really minimalist, distraction-free excellent piece of code. The Windows version is not so often updated, but works fine.

@Martin Not necessarily so. I'm not sure that I need in fact get into the LaTeX3 details in order to answer this. On the contrary, I plan simply ignore or bypass LaTeX3 developments, waiting for a mature release, when people using LaTeX2e can 'add' to his/her knowledge the novelties of LaTeX3, if this is possible. In other words, can I ignore the new language of LaTeX3 by now?

I'd even suggest replace #5 with \setuppagenumbering. What about rewrite that list?

@Aditya Thank you. ConTeXt Macro Top Ten is quite what I needed.

I understand your point of view, but let me respectfully disagree. I think it's not subjective, because I'm asking for the very "typographic axioms" of ConTeXt, if it exists, the ones with which someone can walk on his own feet. And the strategy of deleting from "Excursion" is a hard one: maybe someone is in the same need I am, and can provide the clues I'm asking for.

Less than that. I thought something that would generate this very good book, the very basic ideas.
