Dear all,

I am quite new to context (but love it) and i am trying tind a way to
typeset texts "properly kerned" in such a way that the characters be all
rotated with tiny randomized angle (strange project indeed). I tried to do
it by writing a macro inspired by \followtokens. I have two questions :

1. It works but just for text within a single line :  I have no clue how  to
manage the line breaking, and I have to admit that I don't know eanough TeX
ConTeXt to find out.

2. In playing with the macro followtoken I happened to write two files with
no apparent significant difference (I mean for me) but which give quite
different results : one properly kerned, and another that is not. Could
someone explain me what's happening here ? (files attached)



Thanks a lot,
Alexandre Billon
