I received a few solutions that didn't work for me. Thanks to those who wrote me. But a little plain TeX trickery did it nicely as follows:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------- \setupheadertexts[text] [][\CapStretch{INVESTING ON AUTOPILOT}\kern 1em\number\pageno\hfil] [\number\pageno\kern 1em \CapStretch{ROBERT S. CABLE}\hfil][] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- hmm, I prefear \setupheadertexts[text]% []% [{\CapStretch{INVESTING ON AUTOPILOT}\kern 1em\number\pageno\hfil}]% [{\number\pageno\kern 1em \CapStretch{ROBERT S. CABLE}\hfil}]% []% %%% or an "ascii-visual" code \setupheadertexts[text]% [][{\CapStretch{INVESTING ON AUTOPILOT}\kern 1em\number\pageno\hfil}]% [{\number\pageno\kern 1em \CapStretch{ROBERT S. CABLE}\hfil}][]% %%% I believe that with '{...}' things are more robusts (btw I don't see many differences from my '2 cents' )
Since a centered header with page number included is a recurring requirement perhaps this should go in the wiki. Or perhaps not :<)
hmm, did you seen wiki.contextgarden.net/Headers_and_Footers luigi
