ConteXt commands in an rtl environment
I am having trouble entering ConteXt commands in an rtl language, in this case Hebrew. How does one make the last(left hand) letter of the Hebrew word אשר a superscript? My experiments with \high{...} have not been successful so far in part, I think, because I have not got the brackets right. Any tips or pointers will be gratefully received. Alan
I discovered what the problem was. Just in case someone else may also
wonder how to do this, one way (not necessarily the best) is to insert:
{ר}high\
where the letter in parentheses (resh) should be entered in a l2r context,
not r2l.

Which editor do you use? There is no universal solution for this because different editors require different methods, I tries Notepad++ and VSCode and latter was easier to use for me. See the attached snipped how the input looks in Visual Studio Code. Wolfgang
