Morning all, I am trying to get together something for expressing physics appropriately and precisely. The \units and \lunits command and I are becoming better acquainted, but now I ma having grief with with the \digits{}. In particular, exponents don't seem to function as documented in the 'my way' and I cannot find anything more up to date on the wiki. Input: \digits 123.222,00^10 \digits 123.222,00e10 \digits /123.222,00e-12 \digits -123.222,00e-12 \digits +123.222,00e-12 Actual output: 123 222.0010 123 222.0010 123 222.00−12 −123 222.00−12 +123 222.00−12 (in each case last two digits are superscript, as their signs) Expected output 123.222,00 · 1010 123.222,00 · 1010 123.222,00 · 10−12 -123.222,00 · 10−12 +123.222,00 · 10−12 (in each case last two digits are superscript, as their signs) ???Anyone?
A complete example: \starttext {\em digit exponent powers - don't work} \digits{20^-12} \digits 123.222,00^10 \digits 123.222,00e10 \stoptext On 10 Aug 2011, at 08:57, Ian Lawrence wrote:

Input:
\digits 123.222,00^10
\digits 123.222,00e10
\digits /123.222,00e-12
\digits -123.222,00e-12
\digits +123.222,00e-12
Actual output:
123 222.0010
123 222.0010
123 222.00−12
−123 222.00−12
+123 222.00−12
(in each case last two digits are superscript, as their signs)
Expected output
123.222,00 · 1010
123.222,00 · 1010
123.222,00 · 10−12
-123.222,00 · 10−12
+123.222,00 · 10−12
(in each case last two digits are superscript, as their signs)
???Anyone?
