Subject: character spacing for guillemets in English
Date: Sun, 2 Jun 2013 08:32:00 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAFMOkGXPVKo6S-3swXf0CJe9GQp-7NaPQRVjSkGdp55jcvrFaA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Is there a global way to insert a very thin (ca 1pt) unbreakable space
before a right guillemet and after a left guillemet when the main language
and character spacing are English, so that “«” and “»”  in my source
file are processed properly?

The font that I am using puts them too close to the enclosed characters
(typically, Greek). Basically, I need to borrow the French spacing for
these two characters but have not been able to figure out how to do this
from the ConTeXt source files.
