\setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation] in mkiv

\setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation] in mkiv

[Otared Kavian]

Hi Hans, and all gurus,

I noticed that the mkiv command
\setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation] 
influences even the \type environment: is this behavior wanted or is it a side effect?
Have a look at the following example in which \type{http://wiki.contextgarden.net} results in a space between « http » and « :// » as if the \type command were ignored regarding spacing.

Best regards: OK
%%% french-punctuation.tex
\mainlanguage[fr]
\setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation]

\setupinteraction
  [state=start,color=darkgreen]

\useURL
	[wiki]
	[http://wiki.contextgarden.net/]
	[]
	[{\tt http://wiki.contextgarden.net/}]

\starttext
Here we are following the French rule of typesetting semicolumn: did you see?

However this rule should not be followed in \type{\type}\dots

\useURL{\type{http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Main_Page}}

\blank
\starttyping
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Main_Page
\stoptyping

since otherwise the interaction in the latter example is broken. Indeed there should not be a space 
between \type{http} and \type{://}.
\stoptext

Hello,

I don't know, but I have these line in most of my environments:

\setuptype[style={\setcharacterspacing[reset]\tt}]
\setuptyping[style={\setcharacterspacing[reset]\tt}]
\setupinteraction[style={\setcharacterspacing[reset]\tt}]

Cheers, Peter

\appendtoks
    \setcharacterspacing[reset]%
\to \everyinitializeverbatim

but maybe all such features should be enabled in verbatim i.e. maybe we 
need something \everyforgettypesetting or so
