Dear all,
I am trying to reproduce with ConTeXt an old french text that contains numerous
abbreviations, mostly of two types:
- words cut off by means of a "period", with the last letter of the complete
word as a superscript above the period.
- "overscores"
--either for single characters, for instance in words with double consonances, like
"comme". One of these is sometimes omitted and replaced by an "overscore" on
the previous vowel
-- or on an entire abbreviation, such as "coe" for "comme" and "nre" for
"notre"; they become coe and nre overscored.
\overbar{test}
btw, never do a \setupframed globally as it will infect many derived
frames components ... best do a \defineframed ... then
