Hi,
Taco, thanks for the explanation!
So, this makes the item called: "How can I get the “oldstyle numbers”
(text figures) in a document?" on wiki.contextgarden.net no longer
valid, right!
Changes are difficult to figure out, when you're not very good at the
details. Keeping the wiki up-to-date is a huge task and certainly not a
trivial thing!
Please don't misunderstand me. I don't want to criticise the way the
wiki is maintained. On the contrary, it's a great tool, and we users
very much depend on it.
However for getting the oldstyle numerals working again, I needed this
mailing list!
If I'm wrong please feel free to comment on all this. Thanks again!
Regards,
Gerard Verhaag
