underdot in Greek module
![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/a5cd60098cd767332ac751c0ccd8091e.jpg?s=120&d=mm&r=g)
In MKII (with the latest MKIV), “!” no longer seems to produce underdots (sublinear dots). \usemodule[ancientgreek] [font=GreekDioxipe,scale=1.15,altfont=GreekCanonica,altscale=0.9] \starttext \localgrk{>a!n!'h!r} \stoptext One can work around this this \d{\grk{...}}, but ... And is there a command or key for producing diareseis in Greek, again, using MKII? Alan

This has never worked with this particular font because it doesn't have a sublinear dot. I get the expected output with a font which does have it, e.g. GreekGentium. (Btw, localgrk is not a know command.)

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. These all work for me: \localgreek{"'i "i "`i}. Thomas

Thanks, Thomas. “\localgrk” is a typo. The diaeresis command “ " ” runs afoul of TeXShop and its eagerness to present open and closing quotation marks whenever one types ". I will have to look into this: it is not an obvious preference setting. The lack of a sublinear dot in GreekDioxipe is a pain, since it is the font that I am currently using for Aestimatio and I need to keep it for the present volume. I will change it for the next volume. In the meantime, I will have to resort to my kludge. All best, Alan On Nov 3, 2009, at 16;31,52 , Thomas A. Schmitz wrote:
