Hello all,

I would like to write some words in Classical Mongolian in Latex.
Is it possible to use the old Montex package of Oliver Corff in Context?

Regards,

bozon42

  No.  It's a LaTeX package, you can't use it out of the box with
ConTeXt.  There is a sample file with Mongolian script in XeTeX, you
should try it (it's in plain TeX, if I remember correctly).

Hello Arthur,

I have tried the xetex ClassicalMongolian.tex and the result is OK.

But the only problem remained - what editor can I use to see what characters I am writing?
Does emacs for example able to see Mongolian characters?
