Hello there,
I am relatively new to ConTeXt, now typing a small book in it. I have a
problem with the register (index). This is an example:
[…]
|The page numer of the reference "Long Long Long" is set to the next page. How to prevent this?
Maybe the reference "Long Long Long" could break into two lnes or a rule like that?

The problem is not the \index command but the text in the register, as you can
see in the example below the text and the page number are in separate columns
(or in the long example on separate pages).
\setuppapersize[A6]
\starttext
\index{Too long entry}Long index entry.
\blank
\placeindex
\stoptext
This is caused by this macro in strc-reg.mkiv where you insert only a normal skip
between the the text and page number, changing \hskip to \nobreak\hskip moves
at least a part of the last word in the entry to the next column in the example above.
\unexpanded\def\registerpageseparator% todo: , configurable
   {\ifconditional\c_strc_registers_page_done
      \registerpageseparatorsymbol
    \else
      \hskip\d_strc_registers_distance\relax
      \settrue\c_strc_registers_page_done
    \fi}

I don't find this macro in
strc-reg.mkiv

I am using

What do I have to change?
