Subject: XeTeX, ConTeXt and font/filename quote char
Date: Sun, 23 Dec 2012 08:29:24 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121223062924.GA25853@khaled-laptop> (raw)
Hi all,
Some people have been complaining that it is not possible to use XeTeX
with filenames containing parenthesis because XeTeX treats it as
filename quote char and this it gets stripped. Anyway, after some
searching it turned out this was added in 2004 for ConTeXt to workaround
some MetaPost quotation issue[1].
Now I'm not sure if this is still needed/used by ConTeXt and was
wondering if it can be dropped now?
Regards,
Khaled
