Re: superscripts "th" "nd" "rd" "st" on dates etc..

[Otared Kavian]

Hi,

I don’t see the difference between \high and \highordinalstr, as in the example below. Is there something hidden there?

\starttext

August 21\high{st} 

August 21\highordinalstr{st}

\stoptext

Best regards: OK

Try it with uppercase letters in the argument.

\starttext

August 21\high{ST}

August 21\highordinalstr{ST}

\stoptext

In case that you were looking for an automated way to print the date,
here's one option:
    \setuplanguage[en][date={weekday,{, },day:ord,{~},month,{,~},year}]
(And the documentation is somewhat wrong, I think it suggests to use
"day+" which doesn't work. But I should check the details again.)

Unfortunately I didn't manage to figure out how to do the superscript
automatically. Yes, it's 1\highordinalstr{st} like Alan mentioned, but
that only works in "manual mode".

The keyword to create ordinal numbers in a date has changed in MkIV.

You can’t show them as superscript when you use the \date command
but in manual mode you can also use \ordinaldaynumber.

\starttext
\dorecurse{10}{\ordinaldaynumber{\recurselevel}\crlf}
\stoptext

Please revert this change and let the user choose between a ordinal in 
text size and raised small size.

\starttext

\currentdate[day:ord]

\currentdate[day:highord]
