Hello,

I am trying to set up ConTeXt to work properly with Chinese. Everything 
seemed fine until I discovered that there is some problem with the Chinese 
numbers. I have a TeX file with several chapters. I used texexec and 
dvipdfmx generated the PDF file without problems. But I found there are 
two things wrong (which supposed to be working). The first is that the two 
Chinese charaters before the list of contents (corresponding to the 
'Contents' before English text) are missing. The second, all the chinese 
characters before the chapter titles in the list of contents are missing 
(corresponding to the English text 1 or 1.1, etc.).

I tried to figure out what the problem is myself without success. I read
file font-chi.tex and found some commands like:

\def\chinesedigit#1#2% #2: suffix, here * or \empty
  {\udigit{\chineseencoding}{\number#1#2}}
\def\normalchinesenumber#1%
  {\expandafter\dochinesenumber\number#1\relax\empty}

I tried to use these commands in my file directly. But they didn't produce 
any output there, even no space left for the numbers inside {}.

I am using MikTeX under Windows XP. I am using the latest ConTeXt beta to 
get the dvipdfmx working. 

Your help will be appreciated greatly!

Guo
