Thanks, Hans. In my test file I now have
\mainlanguage[en]
\unexpanded\def\ {\mathortext\normalspaceprimitive\space}
\starttext
x. x, x x\crlf
x, x. x x\crlf
x,\ x.\ x\ x\crlf
x.\ x,\ x\ x\crlf
X. X, X X\crlf
X, X. X X\crlf
X,\ X.\ X\ X\crlf
X.\ X,\ X\ X
\stoptext
Unfortunately, I do not see any effect in the output (under MKII).
The space after a period looks the same as the space after “.\ ”,
though it should be bigger.

As Peter Münster noted: in the following test-file
\starttext
x. x, x x\crlf
x, x. x x\crlf
x,\ x.\ x\ x\crlf
x.\ x,\ x\ x\crlf
X. X, X X\crlf
X, X. X X\crlf
X,\ X.\ X\ X\crlf
X.\ X,\ X\ X
\stoptext
you see 2 bugs:
- in MKIV there is no bigger space after "x."
- in MKII the space after "x.\ " is a big one
The problem remains in ConTeXt ver: 2008.07.31 16:30 for MKII (which
I am using). I am do not know if here have been any changes in MKIV.
Is there a fix for this in the works? I am about to publish a series
of pages which will look vastly better if this is fixed.
