Re: [NTG-context] TIPA in Context
Does Unicode have all the coverage you need, first of all? In any case, Unicode support will be a bit more work than supporting the nice TIPA fonts. Unicode should cover all existant symbols, as you know. Perhaps you could try the free SIL fonts, esp. the nice and well-filled Gentium font, see http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsiitem_id=Gentium (It has latin, greek, IPA and all latin-extended.) There are some other interesting linguist fonts at the site, you may be interested in...

First off, for your dictionary, what do you use for input?
is it [EMAIL PROTECTED] or \textphi\textschwa n?
Al my input is in commands like \textschwa.
Are all of your IPA commands contained within a \textipa{} macro?
Only a minority of my commands are within the \textipa{} macro.
Which of the special macros do you use? \* \; \: \!
None
Do you use the \super macro much? Does it ever get nested? (Hans's
\high{} macro acts a little differently.)
I use the \super macro quite often but it is not nested in the \textipa{} macro.
...but I presume you want deeper support than that. Which do you need
first?
A great number of symbols I use (especially the Indo-European ones) are only available
through the IPA
commands, therefore it seems that I need some deeper support. I read your
UnicodeSymbol pdf about unicode
mapping and wondered if there might be a similar way to map the TIPA font?

I am currently converting my Old Frisian Etymological dictionary from
LaTeX to
Context and I have run into two problems.
The first problem is that I am using the TIPA package to typeset
phonological
fonts and diactitica. Is there a way to use the TIPA font in Context?
The second problem is that the dictionary has 142 seperate language
indexes
with over 32000 index markers in the standard latex index format
\index[language_abbreviation]{...}. Is there an easy way to write one new
(TeX) definition which interprets these markers in such a way that
Context
accepts.
