Text replacement - "<cmd>" to "{{cmd|"
To tell TeX that an expression needs to be typeset using conventions for math, type the expression in <code>$</code>...<code>$</code>. For examples <code>$x$</code> gives
<context>\setuplayout[scale=0.8]$x$</context>, while <code>$2$</code> gives <context>\setuplayout[scale=0.8]$2$</context>. Notice that the ''x'' is in italic while the ''2'' is upright. This is the usual mathematic convention. You can also write in the math mode using the command <{{cmd>|math</cmd> or <{{cmd>|mathematics</cmd>.
Thus, the following three are equivalent. Use the style that you prefer.

== List of All Math macros ==
In ConTeXt MkII, you can see the list of all math macros by <{{cmd>|showmathcharacters</cmd>.In MkIV, \usemodule[fnt-25] followed by <{{cmd>|showmathfontcharacters</cmd> produces a lengthy annotated catalogue.
Here is the first page of this list
