Hi again. I've noticed \hyphenateddigits fails with alphabetical symbols, e.g. with hexadecimal numbers. Maybe there's a better solution, but something like --From phys-dim.lua actions = function(filler, digits) digits = gsub(digits,"(%d)","%1\\digitsbreak ") --space added. Would a "\relax " do better? digits = gsub(digits,"\\-$",filler) context(digits) end would fix it.

Hi, list.
I want to know if ConTeXt provides an option to automatically hyphenate/break digits as if they were alphabetic characters. Example, in a narrow page I expect something like that (I've used (-) for an optional hyphen):
*π = *3.141592653(-) 58979323846264(-) 33832795028841(-) 97169399375105(-) ...
I found myself unable to read a satisfactory solution in the mailing list archive nor other TeX related resources. Maybe LMTX has some magic for that?
I'll add support for:
\starttext
\hsize6cm
\pi\ = \hyphenateddigits[\unknown]{3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375105}
\blank \pi\ = \hyphenateddigits{3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375105} \blank x $\pi = \hyphenateddigits[\unknown]{3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375105}$
\blank x $\pi = \hyphenateddigits{3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375105}$ \blank
\stoptext
A quick and dirty hack as we don't need some full blown mechanism for such a rare case.
