       - the url
       - the current index information (``filterspec``, ``filter`` args,

    *config*
      The current tracker config.

    *db*
      The current database, used to access arbitrary database items.

    *utils*

      Used mainly in *use-macro* commands.

    *template*
      Current rendering template.

    *true*
      Logical True value.

    *false*
      Logical False value.
