All,
German orthography is a mess right now, we now have two sets of
rules, old and new. New hyphenation is ugly and rules are constantly
changing. I see that ConTeXt has lang-deo.pat, so I was hoping that
this would produce "old" patterns, but it doesn't seem to work:
\enableregime[utf]
\mainlanguage[deo]
\starttext
\showhyphens{gestorben}
\showhyphens{Bierdeckel}
\showhyphens{äußerst}
\stoptext
gives me:
Underfull \hbox (badness 10000) in paragraph at lines 8--8
[] \*10ptrmtf* ge-stor-ben
Underfull \hbox (badness 10000) in paragraph at lines 10--10
[] \*10ptrmtf* Bier-de-ckel
Underfull \hbox (badness 10000) in paragraph at lines 12--12
[] \*10ptrmtf* ‰u-ˇerst
which is identical to \mainlanguage[de]. Patterns should be Bierdek-
kel and ‰us-serst. Am I missing something, how can I enable "old"
patterns?
Thanks
