Yesterday I learned:
\startsetups[*default]
\widowpenalties 3 10000 1000 0
\clubpenalties 3 10000 1000 0
\orphanpenalties 2 8000 1000
\stopsetups
If I want the penalty settings applied to “everything” (after defining
the layout, I think?), then I need the setup "*defaults".
Since TeX uses a club against orphans (brutal!), I’m not sure what
\orphanpenalty is for.
I remember \twinpenalty is against doubled words (below each other?),
and \toddlerpenalty against single letter words at the end of a line
(why “toddler”?).
widows and clubs get only 150 in TeX, but 2000 in ConTeXt, as far as I
could find.
Are there more penalties that make sense to set individually?
WRT demerits: Did I understand correctly that demerits are the “sum”
(some formula) of badness and penalties in a line or paragraph?
