Hi,
when asciimode is enabled the \type command ignores double comment
symbols.
\starttext
\quotation{\type{%}}
\quotation{\type{%%}}
\asciimode
\quotation{\type{%}}
\quotation{\type{%%}}
\stoptext
It's actually a feature: in ascimode double % is the comment and
content is preprocessed. originally asciimode was just for math and we
still wanted a way to have comments.
I can't remember the details when the command was added (I know there
was \nonknuthmode) but in this example it works in a unexpected way (the
% are removed but the following text is kept).
There is no need for \asciimode in my document but I use it sometimes
when I have symbols I don't want to replace.
It's a side effect of buffers: each \type ends up in a buffer and that
actually is a file on its own.
But ... we can have
\unexpanded\def\literalmode{\setcatcodetable\txtcatcodes}
and then:
[...]
I'll add that command, assuming that someone will document it somewhere.
Not really needed in this case but I'm going to document it.
I already bet on that -)
