We often need a space as defined in Plain TeX. Because ConTeXt cannot be sure that <code>\space</code> is not redefined, it internally uses an alias: <code>\normalspace</code>.
{{note|When dealing with ConTeXt, please remember to '''never''' (re-)define macros that start with <code>\normal...</code>. Weird, unexpected things can, and probably will, occur!}}
These are constant counters, corresponding to <code>0</code>, <code>1</code> and <code>-1</code>.
