LMTX from 2021.04.14 22:58 doesn’t apply horizontal offset to the sample above.
I’m afraid this might be a bug. Or I may be missing something. new features ... some mail from last week .. you get unbreakable ones with

I understood https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2021/101871.html as a ligature replacement.

I think it would be better not to change defaults that have been there for years (to avoid unpleasant surprises).
I was always able to hyphenate words before and after both — and – and they didn’t include linebreaks before punctuation chars (unlike --- and --).
nornmally tex doesn't hyphenate before ... only after (which is why we have the || mechanism)
BTW, the fourth line in code adds a second page and the third line in includes an unwanted underline:
\starttext \startTEXpage[offset=1em] a—.--\footnote{} b—.\footnote{} \stopTEXpage \stoptext
Many thanks for your help again, what is -- supposed to mean here ... in traditional tex setups it's an endash just like --- is an emdash
as mentioned in an earlier mail, after decades of utf in tex we should use the normal symbols instead ... you can disable collapsing with \nohyphencollapsing but then you need to enable the tlig font feature. In days when often texts is imported from elsewhere and editors can show these dashes we need to adapt Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
