You can extend the default feature to also add missing composed characters to the font. In mkiv we have way more control and these missign characters are then made virtual ones but in the text they are proper unicodes. \definefontfeature[default][compose=yes] \starttext char ṁ (U+01E41) \stoptext
Now, I wonder how can one "define one's own sort order" since I'd like that words containing e.g. 'ṁ' are to be sorted as 'm'?
in sort-lan you can find examples of how sorting works in mkiv .. you can find examples in the test suite end elsewhere about how to influence the sorting order (basically it uses a language sorting order, but the sequence of the about 6 steps involving code, case, shape, can be changed ... in your case the m is quite likely to be sorted as m because it has the 'm' shape
What about generating Glossary?
should be problem ... i'm pretty sure that on the list someone can tell you how he/she did it (users of critical editions)
Any further hint in translating LyX/LaTeX sources into ConTeXt?
i never used lyx but i assume that when there is structure it can partly be scripted 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
