Hello,
while browsing the source, I came across the very nice \digits
macro.
But I have some comments: In my opinion some characters don't look right
\starttext
\digits 123.222,= % short, OK
\digits 123.222,== % should be em dash (?)
\digits +123.222,22 % OK
\digits -123.222,33 % too small
\stoptext
The + and - should be the same size.
Any comments?
Patrick

Looks fine.
Is there a way to increase the length of the dash in
123,--
Now it looks like a simple "-", I'd like to be able to choose between
"-", "--" and perhaps "---".

you can tweak:
\def\zeroamount{-}
\def\positive {+}
\def\negative {-}

ok, so we need
\startmode[mkiv]
\def\dohandledigits
{\mathcode`\,="003B \mathcode`\.="003A % pretty hard coded
\expandafter\handletokens\collecteddigits\with\scandigits
\ifcase\powerdigits\else\digitpowerseparator^{\savedpowerdigits}\fi}
\stopmode
\startnotmode[mkiv]
\def\dohandledigits
{\mathcode`\,="013B \mathcode`\.="013A % pretty hard coded
\expandafter\handletokens\collecteddigits\with\scandigits
\ifcase\powerdigits\else\digitpowerseparator^{\savedpowerdigits}\fi}
\stopnotmode
it is on my agenda to rewrite digits in lua (we use it at pragma so i
have a motive)

This took much more longer than it should. In supp-num.tex, there is
this definition:
\def\dohandledigits
{\mathcode`\,="013B \mathcode`\.="013A % pretty hard coded
\expandafter\handletokens\collecteddigits\with\scandigits
\ifcase\powerdigits\else\digitpowerseparator^{\savedpowerdigits}\fi}
which is causing the trouble. I assume this is just to move them out of
the way, so replacing the two ones with zeroes probably works (?).
Best wishes,
Taco
