Sure. But editing the file is oh so much easier when I can just type \def\japChapterNumber#1{µ⁄#1’¬} than if I have to look up the unicode numbers first and type \def\japChapterNumber{\uchar{123}{44}#1\uchar{122}{224}}
True, but this is scriptable...
That implies that ConTeXt should switch off all conversions when running in XeTeX and seeing \startregime[utf], right?
That's a good point, actually. In fact, XeTeX now has its own regime- like mechanism (\XeTeXinputencoding "charset-name"), that someone could/ should address, either bypassing ConTeXt's existing regimes, or supplementing them. I'm not really active in that space right now, so I can't do it, but I'd be willing to give hints to someone who wants this feature. adam -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.
