I am trying to make an e-book with ConTeXt. The word e-book is used in this e-book. ;-} Sometimes e- comes on the end of the line and book at the beginning of the next. Is there a way to circumvent this? I could ofcourse change all occurences with \hbox{e-book} (and the same for e-mail, ...), but I was hoping there is a better solution. -- Cecil Westerhof

But isn't this supposed to do exactly the opposite of what Cecil wants (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Composed_words)? Also she probably wants to keep hyphenation on hyphens for composed words in general and only disable this for the compound "e-book". Florian

You can control how many characters are allowed on the left/right side of the sign before the word is hyphenated. Wolfgang

Thanks for pointing out. I was not aware of \installbreakpoint[compound]. Florian

You need MkIV!
I just installed the default version from my distribution (openSuse). What is the best way to upgrade?
I think the usual recommended approach is to install the minimals: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Minimals . Pont
