Is there now a new method with pdfTeX-1.40 to get automatically the good spacing (as announced some months ago)? Today I try it like this (without success): %%% module t-french.tex %%% \def\activateSomeCharacters{% \defineactivecharacter =AB {\leftguillemot\,}% % does not work \defineactivecharacter =BB {\,\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=3D2] \lccode`\'=3D`\' \stoplanguagespecifics \mainlanguage[fr] \appendtoks\activateSomeCharacters\to\everystarttext Greetings, Peter -- = http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/
