Another German, and I agree, too, with every point Peter makes. As an addition: I would vote for keeping "` and "'. I know that \quotation{ } is better and have been using it for a while now, but I also know that many older documents still have the old quotes, and when I began using TeX, they were considered standard. I think it's better to gently convince users to switch to the better style, not force them by breaking their documents. My two cents, best wishes Thomas ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
