For those willing to test, i uploaded a new alpha version. In order to use the new method you need to generate the pattern files in a path known to tex. ctxtools --patterns all (or a language code instead) texexec --make --all The pattern files use symbolic names instead of encoding specific characters or tex commands. Because pattern files are often encoding specific, loading a pattern file multiple times could be tricky. The generated files can be loaded for any encoding that provides the named glyphs (i.e. maps onto numbers). [As a joke, i also provide the option to let those pattern files be coded in xml.] In principle, the files can be used in e.g. plain tex as well, for more details see the new (preliminary) manual mpattern.pdf Btw, I still have to do the cyrillic languages. if you think that for your language a multiple encodings should be preloaded ... let me know. Also, the manual has room for language specific information, char tables etc Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
