sane accents [was RE: [NTG-context] m-bib issues]
Dear fellow conspirators, Is there a saner way to define the following accent using ConTeXt's framework: \def\SHIFT#1{\dimen0=.00#1ex \multiply\dimen0 by\fontdimen1\font \kern-.0156\dimen0} % compensate for slant/italic in lower accents \def\h#1{{\oalign{\relax#1\crcr\hidewidth\SHIFT{34}% \vbox to.2ex{\hbox{\char'25}\vss}\hidewidth}}} \def\~#1{{\struttedbox{\accent"7E #1}}} In my own work, the tilda is used over (upper and lower case) `h', `t', and `i', and the lower crescent is only used under (upper and lower case) `h'. lmr does not have the latter case and I still have a couple of issues with lmr so I'd like to maintain control over a few accents for now.
