Dears Joseph, Hans, Wolfgang, Arthur (and others),

As a French user of ConTeXt (current version: 2016.07.18 16:46, generally on Windows 10, time to time on Ubuntu), I am currently working on a book in French, with Greek quotations, and some rare occurences in other non-european languages. Before version: 2016.07.18, there were conflicts in hyphenations (with '\setuplanguage[fr][patterns={fr,agr}]' command) that Hans has fixed. But some disgraceful double dots [:] used to stay at the beginning of lines. With the '\setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation]' command, all end that end well. I found no more hyphenation issues, nor punctuation ones, even within text defined by \definefallbackfamily setup.

\setuplanguage[fr][patterns={fr,agr}]

\mainlanguage[fr]

\setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation]

Dear all,

 

Combining patterns for french and ancien greek languages, I noticed there are wrong hyphenations at quote char as shown in following MWE.

Is this expected behavior by using the patterns= key in such a way ?

 

Using ConTeXt  ver: 2016.08.08 21:28 MKIV beta  fmt: 2016.8.9  int: english/English

 

--------

 

\setuplanguage[fr][patterns={fr, agr}]

\mainlanguage[fr]

 

\starttext

 

\hyphenatedword{l'homme}

 

\stoptext

 

---------

 

The above prints : l’-homme

 

If so, what is the alternative to specify hyphenation in a text containing both french and ancient greek (the minority) words.

 

Thanks a lot for advising,

Best regards

 

Joseph Canedo
