Hi again,
I am reading a CSV file into ConTeXt which contains long DNA sequences (>> 40 characters) to place in xtables. So far, this works fine. However, I need to uppercase the entries and need to \tt them. When I do this inside \WORD however, they don’t hyphenate any more.
I’m using:
\defineseparatedlist
[mylist]
[
separator={,}, quotechar={"},
command=\mycommand
]
\define[2]\mycommand{
\startxrow
\startxcell o#1 \stopxcell
\startxcell 5’-{\tt\WORD{#2}}-3' \stopxcell
\stopxrow
}
Since I don’t have access to each entry, I cant place hyphenation marks directly. Is there a way to tell ConTeXt to hyphenate after say, 12 characters?
Thanks for your help.
Benjamin

Sorry, I have just realized that the problem might not be \WORD{} actually, so this one hyphenates:
\define[2]\mycommand{
\startxrow
\startxcell o#1 \stopxcell
\startxcell \tt\WORD #2 \stopxcell
\stopxrow
}
Whereas these ones don’t:
\define[2]\mycommand{
\startxrow
\startxcell o#1 \stopxcell
\startxcell \tt\WORD #2-3' \stopxcell
\stopxrow
}
\define[2]\mycommand{
\startxrow
\startxcell o#1 \stopxcell
\startxcell 5'-\tt\WORD #2 \stopxcell
\stopxrow
}
Assuming that this has to do with the presence of “-“ which will be the preferred breakpoint. So, I guess the questions boils down to how to define the second argument of
\definebreakpoint[mybreaks][][nright=12,nleft=12,type=1]
in this case or how to “deactivate” the default \setbreakpoints[compound]?

The following works for me:
\define[2]\mycommanda{
\startxrow
\startxcell o#1 \stopxcell
\startxcell \tt\WORD #2 \stopxcell
\stopxrow
}
\define[2]\mycommandb{
\startxrow
\startxcell o#1 \stopxcell
\startxcell \tt\WORD #2-3' \stopxcell
\stopxrow
}
\define[2]\mycommandc{
\startxrow
\startxcell o#1 \stopxcell
\startxcell 5'-\tt\WORD #2 \stopxcell
\stopxrow
}
\definebreakpoint[mybreaks][][nright=12,nleft=12,type=1]
\setbreakpoints[mybreaks]
\starttext
\setupxtable[width=5cm]
\startxtablex
\mycommanda{A}{lsfkgjfkgshgkhigewhgajkdkfkalhfdklahfkhaakfakfh}
\mycommandb{B}{lsfkgjfkgshgkhigewhgajkdkfkalhfdklahfkhaakfakfh}
\mycommandc{C}{lsfkgjfkgshgkhigewhgajkdkfkalhfdklahfkhaakfakfh}
\stopxtable
\stoptext
Producing:
Indeed, it produces the same when nleft and nright are both set to 1 or
12 or 100, but not when setbreakpoints is removed.
If you are trying to do something else, please provide an MWE.
