determinenoflines calculates the number of lines of the given text. For example,
\startbuffer \input tufte \stopbuffer \starttext \determinenoflines{\getbuffer} The number of the lines given text is $\the\noflines$. \stoptext
interesting example of Hans using \determinenoflines.
Unfortunately, it is not compiled in this wiki. If you run the following code with the latest LMTX(ConTeXt ver: 2021.03.17 LMTX), then you will see the lines.
\def\determinednoflines#1% {\localcontrolled{\determinenoflines{#1}}\noflines} \startbuffer \input tufte \stopbuffer \starttext \fillinrules[n=\determinednoflines{\getbuffer}, width=fit]{first} \fillinrules[n=\determinednoflines{\getbuffer}, width=broad]{first} \fillinrules[n=\determinednoflines{\getbuffer}, width=3cm,distance=.5em,separator=:]{first} \fillinrules[n=\determinednoflines{\getbuffer}]{first}{last} \stoptext
