[NTG-context] Re: whitespace inside synonym

Hello,

I am using the synonym mechanizm to design a glossary for my pupils. I am stuck with this: how can I insert a whitespace inside a synonym definition?

What I achieved yet is:

\definesynonyms [vocabulaire] [vocabulaire] [\LaDef] \starttext

\vocabulaire{Unionpersonnelle}{Deux États sont en union personnelle lorsqu’ils ont le même souverain}

\Unionpersonnelle\ \placelistofvocabulaire

\stoptext

I would like to typeset Union personnelle, without inserting a UTF-8 non breakable space. I tried {{Union personnelle}}, but don't know how may I escape the space in the macro. The answer may lay in lowlevel-macro, but I couldn't find it.

Not sure this helps you much but there is: \definesynonyms [vocabulaire] [vocabulaire] [\LaDef] \starttext \vocabulaire[UP]{Union personnelle}{Deux États sont en union personnelle lorsqu’ils ont le même souverain} \UP\ \placelistofvocabulaire \stoptext — Bruce Horrocks Hampshire, UK
