Context, MacOS, accents

Context, MacOS, accents

[Jean-Pierre Le Narzul]

Hi,

I'm using ConTeXt on my iMac (teTeX distribution through I-installer 
program)

Everything seems OK except for inputing accentuated characters ...
If I type \'a I got the correct character (accentuated a) but if I type 
directly the accentuated
character from the keyboard, I got no result ....

I start my document with \useregime[mac] (or \enableregime[mac]) but it 
does not change
anything ....

Any idea ? (sorry if it's a Faq but I didn't find any solution in 
reading the mailing list archive ....)


thanks in advance

this is indeed an faq. This is the second time it was asked within a
few hours... ;-)

Seriously: have you seen my previous post to your question?

(short answer: try \enableregime[il1])

It also depends on your editor, too, of course. (Since you're from .fr,
I'll make an assumption about the editor you use...) iTeXMac in recent
(unstable) releases has fixed some apparent bugs in encoding of
documents. I believe it also allows you to check and change the encoding.

If your files are in Mac OS Roman, then you should be using
\enableregime[mac], as you say. Be sure you have the latest copy of
ConTeXt installed (and make the format)... there's a bug specifically
with \agrave (À instead of à)...

bonne chance,
adam

Thanks to everybody.
It's OK now.
I just decided to use iso-latin1 for encoding character and selected 
\enableregime[il1].
It works well.
Curiously, Mac Roman and \enableregime[mac] doesn't work but it doesn't 
matter ...

 Merci

So what editor did you use? \enableregime[mac] should be ok. How old
is your ConTeXt version?

You won't be the last person to try using it. So it would be nice to
get this fixed.

Hi Patrick

I have upgraded to the last beta version of conTeXt ... and
now everything is OK.
enableregime[mac] with mac encoding
and enableregime[il1] with iso-latin1 encoding 

Thanks a lot to you

a wild guess: your file is encoded in isolatin 1 and not MacRoman. So
give \enableregime[il1] a try.
