(Passing on a question.) Is there a simple methode to automatically add a thinspace before "?", "!", ":" and ";" as it is done commonly in French? This would make typing easier and would allow to change a thinspace into a normal space etc.

Hello, thanks for this "ffr"-mode. I took a look into m-tryout.tex and enco-ffr.tex, but unfortunately I didn't find out where to trigger a thinspace instead of a full space before the colon. Could you help please? (ConTeXt version is 2004.3.16) Cheers, Peter
