The options are as follows:

distance between text and pagenumber
symbol for pagenumber (a=a,b,c; n=1,2,3; 1=dots; 2=blocks)
interaction which part should be clickable?
expansion ?
referencing create references for letter sections (like "index:a")?
textcommand custom command for index word
pagecommand custom command for page number
location ?
compress collapse page numbers
maxwidth Set the maximum length for the text of the index entry in the registerlist (the command uses \limitatetext to do this)
unknownreference insert a horizontal space before and after the reference in the text if you use interactive mode to move from one entry in the text to next or previous one and there is no previous or next reference.
alternative
method sets up the sorter used for \placeregister

Example

Here is an example for MkII:

\defineregister[nickname][nicknames]

\setupregister [nickname]
  [partnumber=no,alternative=A,criterium=all,n=3,balance=yes,pagestyle=normal]
\setupregister [nickname][foto][pagestyle=bold]

\starttext

Text about Mamut\nickname{Mamut}.
\placefigure[]
  {Kuba\nickname[foto::]{Kuba} on the photo.}
  {\externalfigure[kuba][width=0.2\textwidth]}

\page
And text about Kuba\nickname{Kuba}.

\completenickname
\stoptext 

yields


I found it safer to put \register command after punctuation e.g.: Mamut.\nickname{Mamut} [P.K.]

For the MkIV version of setting the pagestyle, and more, see the material on \defineprocessor that is on this page.
