[NTG-context] Chinese, cyrillic questions

[Tobias Burnus]

Hello all,

I have a document which which is predominately English, but contains
(currently) also 8 Chinese characters and 2 Cyrillic words (in the
Acknowledgement section).

First, regarding Chinese:
I use:
  \enableregime[utf]
  \useencoding[cyr]
  \usemodule[chinese]
  \mainlanguage[uk]
  \language[uk]

I would expect having mainlanguage != chinese would turn all
enummerations to arabic numbers. However, I still have -, =, etc. in the
table of contents, in enumberation etc. Is there a simple command to
turn this off?

Secondly, regarding Cyrillic:

Currently, I follow loosely wiki.contextgarden.net and use
  \useencoding[cyr]
  \definetypeface [russian]
[rm] [serif] [computer-modern] [default] [encoding=t2a]
  \def\RuText#1{{\switchtobodyfont[russian]#1}}

On my system (TeXLive 2007 as provided by SUSE) bitmap fonts are used as
the seemingly needed cm-super fonts are not included; the system,
however, has cmcyr type 1 fonts. As true ignoramus regarding fonts in
TeX and the dozens of Cyrillic encodings, I failed to use them instead.

[NTG-context] horizontal list turns into vertical list in framedtext. A bug or feature?

[Hamid Kamrani]

I am just wondering if this is a bug or feature or some lack of
understanding on my part. The horizontal list turns into a vertical
list inside a framedtext environment. The same happens in a background
environment.

\starttext
\startframedtext[width=\textwidth]
\startitemize[5, columns, four]
\item Excellent student \item Good student \item Mediocre student
\item Poor student
\stopitemize
\stopframedtext
\stoptext
