hello

I need this caracter: ¿
I´ve load a module, enco-ec, but I can´t see the ¿.
I also tryed \usetypescript[modern][ec] but didn´t work either.

I have another problem. It´s a two column document. In a page, the first 
column is overlaping a footnote. Column balance is on.

Thankyou all for the answers to the previous questions.

It is much simpler than that. Just use utf regime.

\enableregime[utf]
\starttext
  ¿
\stoptext

Do you use start stop columns or columnsets?

That doesn´t work for me either. The character name is questiondown and 
\questiondown works fine.

Do you use that character in that way? I´ll preffer, because in spanish I 
have to make a lot of replaces, á, é,  í, ó, ú, ñ and ¿, so I can make a 
mistake.

maybe I´m repeatin this mail.

The name of this caracter "¿" is questiondown, and

\questiondown

works, but

\enableregime[utf]

doesn´t. Simply no character is shown.

I use start stop columns. I´ve fix it with a \blank at the end of the 
footnote but not perfectly.
Maybe adding some space before the footnote can fix it better.

Can that be made whit \setupfootnotes ?

I´ve tryed

\setupfootnotes[before=\blank]

but doesn´t work. Is the sintax ok?

Thankyou.

Did you configure your editor to save the file in utf-8 encoding?

You can also try \enableregime[latin1] which might be sufficient for 
your needs.

Change the amount of blank

\setupfootnotes[before={\blank[big]}] or \blank[1cm] etc.

Hello Horacio,
then, your input file is not utf-encoded. Try to do a
"recode l1..u8 file.tex"
or replace utf by il1, since you email seems to be latin1 encoded.
You seem to have character-encoding problems with your mailer too: the
character-encoding of the subject line and the body are not specified.
Cheers, Peter

I´m mailing from windows, but Context is over linux, in another computer.

But about emacs, i´m using the default slackware emacs instalation. Maybe 
it´s out of topic.

I recive word doc files from the authors. I processes usin openoffice, make 
some edits {\em italics},  etc, and save in txt format. Then I open in emacs 
and start to insert comands and some replaces, the %, $, etc.

In latex, I have no problem with acceted characters, á, é etc. and I can use 
á or \´a. But in context I have to úse \´a, \´e, etc. I don´t know i f that 
is because the emacs encoding or what.

In emacs I see teh acceted characters perfectly and I can type the loading 
iso-accents-mode.

I prefer not to make replaces beacuse I can make mistakes besides the time.

thankyou.,

There should be no need to use \'e etc.
Check the encoding of your ConTeXt file with "file myfile.tex":
if it prints something about "ISO-8859" then use \enableregime[il1]
if it prints something about "UTF-8" then use \enableregime[utf]
