Dear gang,
Sometimes I use the following for simple substitutions:
\defineactivecharacter ' {\otfchar{quoteright}}
But is there a more general mechanism to do things
\definesubstitution{<string1>}{<string2>}
eg
\definesubstitution{--}{–}
Of course ConTeXt already provides this particular substitution but I'm
interested in such a mechanism for more general purposes.
Best wishes
Idris
