Hello,
This was lost in the other thread, so I'm starting a fresh one dedicated to
the question.
1) \showinstalledlanguages does not show pe/persian/fa or anything like
that but it has several arabic variants. was this dropped in MkIV or was
there never a persian language environment even in MkII? I thought there
were translated labels for Farsi somewhere.
2) In the following MWE, ad-hoc hyphenation using \- works and leads to
hyphenation. However, specifying the pattern at the beginning does not
have any effect. Am I missing something?
\usemodule[simplefonts]
\setmainfont[dejavusans][features=arabic,range=arabic]
\setupalign[r2l]
\showframe
\hyphenation{سازمان-دهی}
\starttext
%% The above pattern is not used here and the long word moves into the
margin.
\dorecurse{14}{سلام }
سازماندهی
مناسب.
%% It does work here, though.
\dorecurse{14}{سلام }
سازمان\-دهی
مناسب.
\stoptext
How can one create a new language? The languages manual
<http://www.pragma-ade.nl/general/manuals/languages-mkiv.pdf> suggests that
this is possible. Does that mean I need to send the request to
Hans/Wolfgang to create the new entry or can one do so dynamically? Beside
the issue of sorting in indices, etc.—which I will get to in due
time—having an entry for language pe/persian seems to be necessary to
*properly* use \setuplabeltext, etc. Is that correct?
Thanks a lot!
—MHB
