Hello,
I would like to activate a remapper in a style or module file. How could
this be done?
I tried this without success:
\defineremapper[filterItem]
\remapcharacter[filterItem][`•]{\item}
\appendtoks \startfilterItem \to \everystarttext
\prependtoks \stopfilterItem \to \everystoptext
kep in mind that the remapper is just a hack and will not be extended etc
etc; i'm not going to handle interferences with other mechanisms

I think the point is this :
in some situations one find useful to convert things like • in macros like
\item .
Of course, it can be done with preprocessing , or with some ad-hoc macros
in lua code , etc
So, apart \remapcharacter, are there any other safe ways to "remap
character" ?
one solution mentioned was making that character active and then do an
unexpanded def which makes it roundtrip safe; of course we should leave
characters like : untouched
the remapper works on all input and it might result in unwanted side
effects .. imagine that someone defines symbol 1 as • and gets \item
instead
