I tried to debug thus further, compiling the following document with both plain and context formats, in plain all boxes are TRT (the part of the log after "Completed box being shipped out [1]"), while in context all boxes are TLT except that hbox that contains the text. Though I don't know how much relevant is this or what it does actually mean.

you can comment this in cont-new.mkiv % \def\pagedir{\expandafter\gobblethreearguments} % \def\bodydir{\expandafter\gobblethreearguments} i'm trying to figure out what dirs make sense (even when all are enabled the alignment is no 100% ok; for instance, why should bodydir influence textdir and pardir (i.e. when i would expect the content to be rl independent of page/bodydir (we need some higher level interface and not these low level *dir commands) best is if you and idris sort this out (is part of idris onthology) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
