Subject: narrow space in "\ldots."
Date: Fri, 08 May 2009 09:03:33 -1000 (HST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090508.090333.106804568.furue@hawaii.edu> (raw)
Hello ConTeXt folks,
I'm quite new to ConTeXt. I like it.
It's way more systematic than LaTeX.
Here's my first question. When omitting the last
part of a sentence, I want four periods:
This is a long sentence which\ldots.
LaTeX produces equally-spaced four periods,
but with ConTeXt, the last space is narrower
than the preceding two. (See examples below.)
I guess that LaTeX specifically designed
its \ldots with this use (sentence-ending four dots)
in mind. How can one fix it in ConTeXt?
I use the "context" package version 2008.05.21-1
on Debian testing. The LaTeX is from the
texlive-latex packages.
Cheers,
Ryo
