Re: [NTG-context] How to repeat the hyphen?

Sounds like you've got it working, but just to provide an alternative that should* work, according to the sources: \setuplanguage[cz] [compoundhyphen=-,% Or, to keep the \setuphyphenmark rightcompoundhyphen=-,% configuration mentioned in Taco's link: leftcompoundhyphen=-]% `*compoundhyphen=\compoundhyphen` That does require you to replace all the hyphens with `||`, which it understandably sounds like you want to avoid, but it can be good for someone like me who likes that explicit markup, or for someone who needs more control over which symbols go where (I'm using for Esperanto -- slightly non-standard -- a vertical tick mark for the inner-line and the left but the hyphen for the right). The main benefit, though, is that you can do the same thing for line-breaking hyphenation if you need to change that, just drop the `compound` in the keys. * I've been running into it working for the first break or two but than switching back to the default for the rest of the document, and haven't been able to track down why. Though it might have something to do with me still using the ridiculously out-of-date 2016.05.17 because I haven't gotten around to overriding the Gentoo package manager yet...

Hi Taco,

this is exactly what I needed, thank you very much.

I agree...

Best wishes,
