But, apart this (which is important etc etc etc) any other issue ? I mean: I'm typesetting international pricelist from 7 years, it would be impossible to manage thing without unicode and context. If one submit a file in a known (iconv --list) encoding I convert it in unicode utf *before* and then process with mkiv. And iconv can be eventually link in lua, by a dynamic linking --- not need for peek and poke sources. Or it can be done in pure lua. Am I wrong ? Anyway I do the rules --- only one input encoding: unicode utf-8 . Sorry for the others. > > of course font (and math) encodings are completely gone unicode input & uncode fonts are the news --- you typeset what you see I understand that ``correct'' is the right way but please “correct” is better (the perfect way) (I mean U+201C LEFT DOUBLE QUOTATION MARK correct U+201D RIGHT DOUBLE QUOTATION MARK ) -- luigi ___________________________________________________________________________________ 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 : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
