[NTG-context] sorting commalist?

In the article "Context System macros, part1: general macros" there are all sorts of interesting and useful macros. Among these I have set my eye on the processing of commalists.Question: is there a context macro that takes a commalist (either in a token register or \the\tokenregister form) that re

I spent some time and decided to start from the beginning: 1. I deleted all old ConTeXt files from my tetex distribution. 2. Unzipped recent cont-tmf into texmf-local analog in my system. 3. Unzipped recent font metrics to appropriate folder 4. texexec --make --all runs perfectly 5. texexec --mak

Hello, the answers to these three questions are most probably one-liners, but I don't know which ones ;) 1. How can I scale (an already defined) reusableMPgraphic? Simplified example of what I currently (want to) have: % how should I change this definition? \def\usemygraphic[#1][#2]{\reuseMPgrap

Hello, Recently, I made lang-ru.hyp and lang-ru.pat files from TeX's ruhyphal.tex . I read Hans' "Hyphenation patterns" and didn't understand how to use my patterns to enable hyphenation (btw, in manual used key --patterns but in current ctxtools used --patternfiles) What I've done: 1. Created la
