Hello,
my attempt to get correct French spacing before punctuation does no more
work with the latest ConTeXt-beta.
Is there now a new method with pdfTeX-1.40 to get automatically the good
spacing?
Today I try it like this (without success):
%%% module t-french.tex %%%
\def\activateSomeCharacters{%
\defineactivecharacter « {\leftguillemot\,}% does not work
\defineactivecharacter » {\,\rightguillemot}% with utf-encoding
%
% \defineactivecharacter ; {\,\lettersemicolon}% does not work
%
\defineactivecharacter ? {\,\letterquestionmark}% does not work with
\defineactivecharacter : {\,\lettercolon}% project/product
\defineactivecharacter ! {\,\letterexclamationmark}}% structure
\startlanguagespecifics[fr]
\activateSomeCharacters
\setupitemize[symbol=2]
\lccode`\'=`\'
\stoplanguagespecifics
\mainlanguage[fr]
\appendtoks\activateSomeCharacters\to\everystarttext
Greetings, Peter
