Dear ConTeXt folks,
is it expected that \right)² is not recognized as \right)^2?
\starttext
Using ^2:
\placeformula
\startformula
\left( a + b \right)^2 = a² + 2ab + b²
\stopformula
\placeformula
\startformula
\left( a + \frac72 \right)^2
\stopformula
Using ². The first example does not display the problem that well because the parenthesis are too small:
\placeformula
\startformula
\left( a + b \right)² = a² + 2ab + b²
\stopformula
\placeformula
\startformula
\left( n + \frac72 \right)²
\stopformula
\stoptext
Please find the example also attached.
Thanks,
Paul

Yes it is, to enable this feature you need the “mathcrap” module.

Thank you for the quick answer, but ² is still not put at the correct
height when used like `\right)²`.
Thanks,

Looking at the mathcrap module (nice name :p), it seems the ² (and other
superscript characters) is defined as {\normalsuperscript{2}} and the
extra grouping makes the superscript to be applied to an empty base not
the brace. Not sure if removing that extra group is safe or not
(\normalsuperscript{2} on its own seems to be safe).
Regards,
Khaled

not grouping gives an error on $a₀₁₂₃₄₅₆₇₈₉₋₌₊$ (maybe we could have
{}\normal... but on the other hand, this module is not really needed as
mkiv already recognizes these funny chars anyway
