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.
