[NTG-context] is this valid usage of \def?

30 May 2010

      Hello,

Could someone please confirm that it is ok to use \def like this:

  \def\ru{\switchtobodyfont[cyr]\language[ru]}
  \starttext
  \item {\ru Эйхенбаум, Борис. {\it Теория «формального метода»}.} 
        Some other text in the main language.
  \stoptext

This is MkII with XeTeX, cyr is defined as

  \definetypeface[cyr][rm][Xserif][CMU Serif]
  \definetypeface[cyr][ss][Xsans][CMU Sans Serif]
  \definetypeface[cyr][tt][Xmono][CMU Typewriter Text]

because 'Latin Modern' lacks cyrillic glyphs and 'Computer Modern Unicode'
lacks some Lithuanian glyphs (and looks slightly different).
