Hi,
just by chance I experienced that there seems to be a problem with ligatures and hyphenation in ConTeXt.
This is the example:
\usetypescript[postscript][\defaultencoding] \setupencoding[default=texnansi] \mainlanguage[de] \enableregime[mac] \setupbodyfont[postscript,10pt]
\starttext
Auflagen % the fl-ligature is wrong here
Auf\-lagen % this is the right fl
Auf\/lagen %this is the right fl
123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012 34567890 Auflagen % right hyphenation, but wrong ligature
123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012 34567890 Auf\-lagen % but this kills the other hyphenation Aufla-gen
123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012 34567890 Auf\/lagen % but this kills the other hyphenation Aufla-gen

% the next wrong causes an error (but would be perfect: 123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012 34567890 Auf"|lagen % this is used in (La)TeX, but doesn'T work in ConTeXt?!
\stoptext
What is needed is to ... 1) avoid the fl-ligature 2) preserve all the default hyphenation points
In TeX (or only LaTeX?) Auf"-lagen or Auf"|lagen would do this. But what is the equivalent in ConTeXt?
