[[Some Basic Commands]]
= ''start-stop'', ''setup'', and ''define'' =
 
There are three main types of commands in ConTeXt:
 
 
 
# '''start-stop''': To apply ''something'' to some text, enclose the text in {{code|\start''something''}} {{code|\stop''something''}}.
 
# '''setup''': To configure ''something'' for the rest of the document, use {{code|\setup''something''}}.
 
# '''define''': To create a named customization of ''something'', use {{code|\define''something''}}.
 
 
 
Many commands don’t fit into one of these types, but here are some that do:
 
 
 
== Structure ==
 
These commands relate to the structure of a document.
 
 
 
* {{cmd|definestartstop}} and {{cmd|setupstartstop}}
 
* {{cmd|setupblock}} and {{cmd|setupblock}}
 
* {{cmd|definelist}} and {{cmd|setuplist}}
 
* {{cmd|definelistalternative}} and {{cmd|setuplistalternative}}
 
* {{cmd|definecombinedlist}} and {{cmd|setupcombinedlist}}
 
 
 
 
 
== Text formatting and decoration ==
 
These commands relate to how text is displayed, without repositioning the text (much).
 
 
 
* {{cmd|definehighlight}} and {{cmd|setuphighlight}}
 
* {{cmd|defineframed}}, {{cmd|setupframed}}, and {{cmd|startframed}}
 
* {{cmd|defineblank}} and {{cmd|setupblank}}
 
 
 
== Layout and Design ==
 
These commandds relate to how text is laid out on the page, possibly moving or positioning the text.
 
 
 
* {{cmd|definelayout}} and {{cmd|setuplayout}}
 
 
 
* {{cmd|definelines}} and {{cmd|setuplines}}
