Hi,

to prevent long abbreviations from being hyphenated I use the vertical line. That's fine in most cases. Only, bad luck if there is a footnote following and this at the end of the line:

\starttext bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla |WikiPOBia|\footnote{note}. \stoptext

... on my machine the second line starts with the footnote marker 1.

Is there a general solution to avoid this bad coincidence?

\hyphenation{WikiPOBia}

well, I meant a more general solution, like tuning up the vertikal line to a "no hyphen inbetween and no linebreak afterwards" - character?! Steffen

Actually, you are misusing the || command. It is supposed to be used to explicitly *allow* breaking at the left of the first and at the right of the second |. The fact that the inbetween text does not hyphenate is a side-effect, not the main feature.

oh. ... that's why! steffen
