Hi Hans, and all gurus,
I noticed that the mkiv command
\setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation]
influences even the \type environment: is this behavior wanted or is it a side
effect?
Have a look at the following example in which
\type{http://wiki.contextgarden.net} results in a space between « http » and «
:// » as if the \type command were ignored regarding spacing.
Best regards: OK
%%% french-punctuation.tex
\mainlanguage[fr]
\setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation]
\setupinteraction
[state=start,color=darkgreen]
\useURL

Here we are following the French rule of typesetting semicolumn: did you see?
However this rule should not be followed in \type{\type}\dots

\useURL{\type{http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Main_Page}}

\starttyping

\stoptyping

since otherwise the interaction in the latter example is broken. Indeed there
should not be a space
between \type{http} and \type{://}.
