Hi Hans,

can you add a conversion which let us show 0 as value for the first
chapter etc.

\def\zeronumberconversion#1{\number\numexpr#1-1\relax}

\defineconversion [zero] [\zeronumberconversion]

\defineconversionset [zero] [n,zero] [n]

\setuphead [sectionconversionset=zero]

\starttext

\startchapter [title=Introduction]

\startsection [title=First topic]
\stopsection

\startsection [title=Second topic]
\stopsection

\stopchapter

\stoptext

Hans does not like counting from zero, for some reason... :-)

I’m recreating a older document which starts the introduction with 0 and
I don’t plan to change this.

There is no change in the counter needed but all I do is to change the
output in the pdf with the number conversion.
