Possible bug with \date in french
Hi,
Since a recent upgrade of the beta the \date command give "day+ octobre 2011"
if \mainlanguage[fr] is set. Minimal example:
\mainlanguage[fr]
\starttext
\date
\language[en]
(\date)
\stoptext
A rapid search lead me to these lines (560-571) in "lang-def.mkiv":
\installlanguage
[\s!fr]
[\c!spacing=\v!packed,
(...)
\c!date={\v!day+,\v!space,\v!month,\v!space,\v!year}]
where the "day+" appears. Several lines further (line 670), one found:
\defineconversion [\s!fr] [\v!day+] [\frordinaldaynumber]
but I have not find any file defining "\frordinaldaynumber" (except "lang-
ita.mkii" for MKII). Is there something to fix in the beta or is there
something I missed ?
Thank you in advance.

Don’t know if it is exactly what you meant I should test but it seems to
work...

day+ was a shortcut for day:mnem (or actually it was there before we had :mnem) but in mkiv that shortcut is gone ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
