[NTG-context] Which way to type greek letters in synonym list?

2010-12-06 Thread seasoul
Dear All,

 I am setting up the synonym list. I defined it as nomenclature

\definesynonyms[nomenclature][nomenclatures][\infull]

\setupsynonyms[nomenclature] [criterium=all,location=serried]



when i type in someting like



\nomenclature{A} {Area}



it works.



But if I type

\nomenclature{$\alpha$}{Angle of something}



it fails. The reason may be only text could be used. I found the list is
sorted alphabetically. Then if I type a greek letter, the compiler does not
konw how to sort it.

Hi!

 But if I type
 \nomenclature{$\alpha$}{Angle of something}
Try \nomenclature[alpha]{$\alpha$}{…}

Greeting
Andreas

This will fail because to create a macro \alpha which expands to \alpha ...

Use uppercase letter to prevent this, when your font contains greek you can 
also use a text alpha, e.g.

\abbreviation[ALPHA]{α}{Angle of something}
\setupbodyfont[termes]
\starttext
\ALPHA
\stoptext

Thanks to Andreas and Wolfgang,

  That's true. The uppercase letter works, the lowercase method
complains.
