can someone tell me, how to set the counter of footnotes (e.g., one back, or to zero)?

Play with this: ============================================== % output=pdf interface=en \starttext Test.\footnote{Test} Test.\footnote{Test} \resetnumber[footnote] Test.\footnote{Test} Test.\footnote{Test} \incrementnumber[footnote] Test.\footnote{Test} Test.\footnote{Test} \decrementnumber[footnote] \decrementnumber[footnote] \decrementnumber[footnote] Test.\footnote{Test} Test.\footnote{Test} \stoptext ============================================== Hans, can one add an option like \decrementnumber[2][footnote] to subract 2 instead of declaring the command three times?
