Although for real good hyphenation %D of non||english languages some extensions to the program are %D needed, fairly good results can be reached with the standard %D mechanisms and an additional macro, at least in Dutch. \unprotect \writestatus{loading}{Context Support Macros / Language Options} %D \CONTEXT\ originates in the wish to typeset educational %D materials, especially in a technical environment. In %D production oriented environments, a lot of compound words %D are used. Because the Dutch language poses no limits on %D combining words, we often favor putting dashes between those %D words, because it facilitates reading, at least for those %D who are not that accustomed to it. %D %D In \TEX\ compound words, separated by a hyphen, are not %D hyphenated at all. In spite of the multiple pass paragraph %D typesetting this can lead to parts of words sticking into %D the margin. The solution lays in saying \type %D {spoelwater||terugwinunit} instead of \type %D {spoelwater-terugwinunit}. By using a one character command %D like \type {|}, delimited by the same character \type {|}, %D we get ourselves both a decent visualization (in \TEXEDIT\ %D and colored verbatim we color these commands yellow) and an %D efficient way of combining words. %D %D The sequence \type{||} simply leads to two words connected by %D a hyphen. Because we want to distinguish such a hyphen from %D the one inserted when \TEX\ hyphenates a word, we use a bit %D longer one. %D %D \hyphenation {spoel-wa-ter te-rug-win-unit} %D %D \starttest %D \test {spoelwater||terugwinunit} %D \stoptest %D %D As we already said, the \type{|} is a command. This commands %D accepts an optional argument before it's delimiter, which is %D also a \type{|}. %D %D \hyphenation {po-ly-meer che-mie} %D %D \starttest %D \test {polymeer|*|chemie} %D \stoptest %D %D Arguments like \type{*} are not interpreted and inserted %D directly, in contrary to arguments like: %D %D \starttest %D \test {polymeer|~|chemie} %D \test {|(|polymeer|)|chemie} %D \test {polymeer|(|chemie|)| } %D \stoptest %D %D Although such situations seldom occur |<|we typeset thousands %D of pages before we encountered one that forced us to enhance %D this mechanism|>| we also have to take care of comma's. %D %D \hyphenation {uit-stel-len} %D %D \starttest %D \test {op||, in|| en uitstellen} %D \stoptest %D %D The next special case (concerning quotes) was brought to my %D attention by Piet Tutelaers, one of the driving forces %D behind rebuilding hyphenation patterns for the dutch %D language.\voetnoot{In 1996 the spelling of the dutch %D language has been slightly reformed which made this topic %D actual again.} We'll also take care of this case. %D %D \starttest %D \test {AOW|'|er} %D \test {cd|'|tje} %D \test {ex|-|PTT|'|er} %D \test {rock|-|'n|-|roller} %D \stoptest %D %D Tobias Burnus pointed out that I should also support %D something like %D %D \starttest %D \test {well|_|known} %D \stoptest %D %D to stress the compoundness of hyphenated words. %D %D Of course we also have to take care of the special case: %D %D \starttest %D \test {text||color and ||font} %D \stoptest %D \macros %D {installdiscretionaries} %D %D The mechanism described here is one of the older inner parts %D of \CONTEXT. The most recent extensions concerns some %D special cases as well as the possibility to install other %D characters as delimiters. The prefered way of specifying %D compound words is using \type{||}, which is installed by: %D %D \starttypen %D \installdiscretionaries || - %D \stoptypen %D %D Some alternative definitions are: %D %D \startbuffer %D \installdiscretionaries ** - %D \installdiscretionaries ++ - %D \installdiscretionaries // - %D \installdiscretionaries ~~ - %D \stopbuffer %D %D \typebuffer %D %D after which we can say: %D %D \bgroup %D \haalbuffer %D \starttest %D \test {test**test**test} %D \test {test++test++test} %D \test {test//test//test} %D \test {test~~test~~test} %D \stoptest %D \egroup %D \macros %D {compoundhyphen, %D beginofsubsentence,endofsubsentence} %D {} %D %D Now let's go to the macros. First we define some variables. %D In the main \CONTEXT\ modules these can be tuned by a setup %D command. Watch the (maybe) better looking compound hyphen. \def\compoundhyphen {{-}\kern-.25ex{-}} \def\beginofsubsentence {---} \def\endofsubsentence {---} %D The last two variables are needed for subsentences %D |<|like this one|>| which we did not yet mention. %D %D We want to enable breaking but at the same time don't want %D compound characters like |-| or || to be separated from the %D words. \TEX\ hackers will recognise the next two macro's: \def\prewordbreak {\penalty10000\hskip0pt\relax} \def\postwordbreak {\penalty0\prewordbreak} %D We first show the original implementation, which only %D supports \type{|} as command and delimiter. Before %D activating \type{|} we save it's value: %D %D \starttypen %D \edef\domathmodediscretionary{\string|} %D \stoptypen %D %D after which we're ready to define it's meaning to: %D %D \starttypen %D \catcode`\|=\@@active %D %D \unexpanded\def|% %D {\ifmmode %D \expandafter\domathmodediscretionary %D \else %D \expandafter\dotextmodediscretionary %D \fi} %D \stoptypen %D %D We need a two stage \type{\futurelet} because we want to %D look ahead for both the compound character definition and %D the (optional) comma that follows it, and because we want to %D prevent that \TEX\ puts this comma on the next line. We use %D \type{\next} for easy and fast checking of the argument, we %D save this argument (which can consist of more tokens) and %D also save the character following the \type{|#1|} in %D \type{\nextnext}. %D %D \starttypen %D \def\dotextmodediscretionary% %D {\bgroup %D \futurelet\next\dodotextmodediscretionary} %D %D \def\dodotextmodediscretionary#1|% %D {\def\betweendiscretionaries{#1}% %D \futurelet\nextnext\dododotextmodediscretionary} %D \stoptypen %D %D The main macro consists of quite some \type{\ifx} tests %D while \type{\checkafterdiscretionary} handles the commas. %D We show the simplified version here: %D %D \starttypen %D \def\dododotextmodediscretionary% %D {\let\nextnextnext=\egroup %D \ifx |\next %D \checkafterdiscretionary %D \prewordbreak\hbox{\compoundhyphen\nextnext}\allowbreak\postwordbreak %D \else\ifx=\next %D \prewordbreak\compoundhyphen %D \else\ifx~\next %D \discretionary{-}{}{\thinspace}\postwordbreak %D \else\ifx(\next %D \prewordbreak\discretionary{}{(-}{(}\prewordbreak %D \else\ifx)\next %D \prewordbreak\discretionary{-)}{}{)}\prewordbreak %D \else\ifx'\next %D \prewordbreak\discretionary{-}{}{'}\postwordbreak %D \else %D \checkafterdiscretionary %D \prewordbreak\hbox{\betweendiscretionaries\nextnext}\allowbreak\postwordbreak %D \fi\fi\fi\fi\fi\fi %D \nextnextnext} %D %D \def\checkafterdiscretionary% %D {\ifx,\nextnext %D \def\nextnextnext{\afterassignment\egroup\let\next=}% %D \else %D \let\nextnext=\relax %D \fi} %D \stoptypen %D %D Handling \type{(} and \type{)} is a a bit special, because %D \TEX\ sees them as decent hyphenation points, according to %D their \type{\lccode} being non||zero. For the same reason, %D later on in this module we cannot manipulate the %D \type{\lccode} but take the \type{\uccode}. %D The most recent implementation is more advanced. As %D demonstrated we can install delimiters, like: %D %D \starttypen %D \installdiscretionaries || \compoundhyphen %D \stoptypen %D %D This time we have to use a bit more clever way of saving the %D math mode specification of the character we're going to %D make active. We also save the user supplied compound hyphen. %D We show the a bit more traditional implementation first. %D %D \starttypen %D \def\installdiscretionaries#1% %D {\catcode`#1\@@other %D \expandafter\doinstalldiscretionaries\string#1} %D %D \def\doinstalldiscretionaries#1% %D {\setvalue{mathmodediscretionary#1}{#1}% %D \catcode`#1\@@active %D \dodoinstalldiscretionaries} %D %D \def\dodoinstalldiscretionaries#1#2% %D {\setvalue{textmodediscretionary\string#1}{#2}% %D \unexpanded\def#1{\discretionarycommand#1}} %D \stoptypen %D %D A bit more \CATCODE\ and character trickery enables us to %D discard the two intermediate steps. This trick originates %D on page~394 of the \TEX book, in the appendix full of %D dirty tricks. The second argument has now become redundant, %D but I decided to reserve it for future use. At least it %D remembers us of the symmetry. \beginTEX \def\installdiscretionaries#1#2#3% {\convertargument#1\to\ascii \setevalue{mathmodediscretionary\string#1}{\ascii}% \setvalue{textmodediscretionary\string#1}{#3}% \catcode`#1=\@@active \scratchcounter=\the\uccode`~ \uccode`~=`#1 \uppercase{\unexpanded\def~{\discretionarycommand~}}% \uccode`~=\scratchcounter} \endTEX \beginETEX \detokenize \def\installdiscretionaries#1#2#3% {\setevalue{mathmodediscretionary\string#1}{\detokenize{#1}}% \setvalue{textmodediscretionary\string#1}{#3}% \catcode`#1=\@@active \scratchcounter=\the\uccode`~ \uccode`~=`#1 \uppercase{\unexpanded\def~{\discretionarycommand~}}% \uccode`~=\scratchcounter} \endETEX \def\dohandlemathmodebar#1% {\getvalue{mathmodediscretionary\string#1}} \def\discretionarycommand% {\relax\ifmmode \expandafter\dohandlemathmodebar \else \expandafter\dotextmodediscretionary \fi} %D The next piece of code is a torture test for this previous %D macro.

In \CONTEXT\ these %D hooks are used to insert a small space when needed. \let\beginofsubsentencespacing=\relax \let\endofsubsentencespacing =\relax %D Before we show some more tricky alternative, we first install %D the mechanism: \installdiscretionaries || \compoundhyphen %D \macros %D {fakecompoundhyphen} %D %D In headers and footers as well as in active pieces of text %D we need a dirty hack. Try to imagine what is needed to %D savely break the next text across a line and at the same %D time make the words interactive. %D %D \starttypen %D \goto{Some||Long||Word} %D \stoptypen \def\currentspaceskip% {\fontdimen2\font\!!plus\fontdimen3\font\!!minus\fontdimen4\font\relax} \def\fakecompoundhyphen% {\def|##1|{\compoundhyphen\nobreak\hskip-\currentspaceskip\allowbreak}} %D One of the drawbacks of this mechanism is that characters can %D be made active afterwards. The next alternative can be used %D in such situations. This time we don't compare the arguments %D directly but use the \type{\uccode}'s instead. \TEX\ %D initializes these codes of the alphabetics glyphs to their %D uppercase counterparts. Normally the other characters remain %D zero. If so, we can use the \type{\uccode} as a signal. %D \macros %D {enableactivediscretionaries} %D %D The more advanced mechanism is activated by calling: %D %D \starttypen %D \enableactivediscretionaries %D \stoptypen %D %D which is defined as: \def\enableactivediscretionaries% {\uccode`'=`'\relax \uccode`~=`~\relax \uccode`_=`_\relax \uccode`(=`(\relax \uccode`)=`)\relax \uccode`==`=\relax \uccode`<=`<\relax \uccode`>=`>\relax \let\dotextmodediscretionary = \activedotextmodediscretionary \let\dododotextmodediscretionary = \activedododotextmodediscretionary} %D We only have to redefine two macros.

It can be confusing too, especially when we %D load macropackages afterwards that make use of \type{<} in %D \type{\ifnum} or \type{\ifdim} statements. %D And then came the Polish users, and who can deny them? Like %D the German \TEX\ users demand an active \type {"}, the %D Polish cannot do without the \type {/}. The next alternative %D is a bit slower but far the most robust alternative. As a %D bonus it also offers \type {|^|} and even \type {|||} which %D both result in a breakable|^|bar. %D %D The trick we use here is to convert the argument to a %D string and compare this string to string'd tokens. \def\activedotextmodediscretionary#1% {\bgroup \let\nextnextnext\egroup \def\handlecompoundcharacter##1% new, needed for polish {\getvalue{\@nc@\string##1}}% where / is active \def\next##1#1% {\def\next{\activedododotextmodediscretionary#1{##1}}% \futurelet\nextnext\next}% \next} \def\activedododotextmodediscretionary#1#2% {\convertargument#2\to\discretionarytoken \def\textmodediscretionary{\getvalue{textmodediscretionary\string#1}}% \ifx#1\nextnext % takec care of ||| and +++ and ...... \prewordbreak\discretionary{\hbox{$#1$}}{}{\hbox{$#1$}}% \allowbreak\postwordbreak \def\nextnextnext{\afterassignment\egroup\let\next=}% \else\ifx\discretionarytoken\empty \checkafterdiscretionary \bgroup \checkbeforediscretionary \prewordbreak\hbox{\textmodediscretionary\nextnext}\allowbreak\postwordbreak \egroup \else\convertargument=\to\next\ifx\next\discretionarytoken \prewordbreak\textmodediscretionary \else\convertargument~\to\next\ifx\next\discretionarytoken \prewordbreak\discretionary{-}{}{\thinspace}\postwordbreak \else\convertargument_\to\next\ifx\next\discretionarytoken \prewordbreak\discretionary{\textmodediscretionary} {\textmodediscretionary}{\textmodediscretionary}\prewordbreak \else\convertargument(\to\next\ifx\next\discretionarytoken \ifdim\lastskip>\!!zeropoint\relax (\prewordbreak \else \prewordbreak\discretionary{}{(-}{(}\prewordbreak \fi \else\convertargument)\to\next\ifx\next\discretionarytoken \ifx\nextnext\blankspace \prewordbreak)\relax \else\ifx\nextnext\space \prewordbreak)\relax \else \prewordbreak\discretionary{-)}{}{)}\prewordbreak \fi\fi \else\convertargument'\to\next\ifx\next\discretionarytoken \prewordbreak\discretionary{-}{}{'}\postwordbreak \else\convertargument<\to\next\ifx\next\discretionarytoken \beginofsubsentence\prewordbreak\beginofsubsentencespacing \else\convertargument>\to\next\ifx\next\discretionarytoken \endofsubsentencespacing\prewordbreak\endofsubsentence \else\convertargument^\to\next\ifx\next\discretionarytoken \prewordbreak\discretionary{\hbox{$|$}}{}{\hbox{$|$}}% \allowbreak\postwordbreak \else \checkafterdiscretionary \bgroup \checkbeforediscretionary \prewordbreak \discretionary{\hbox{#2}}{}{\hbox{#2}}% \allowbreak\postwordbreak \egroup \fi\fi\fi\fi\fi\fi\fi\fi\fi\fi\fi \nextnextnext} %D Since we don't have to bother about active characters any %D longer, we end up with a pretty simple activating macro: \def\enableactivediscretionaries% {\let\dotextmodediscretionary=\activedotextmodediscretionary} %D Done somewhere else: \type {\enableactivediscretionaries}. %D \macros %D {installcompoundcharacter} %D %D When Tobias Burnus started translating the dutch manual of %D \PPCHTEX\ into german, he suggested to let \CONTEXT\ support %D the \type{german.sty} method of handling compound %D characters, especially the umlaut. This package is meant for %D use with \PLAIN\ \TEX\ as well as \LATEX. %D %D I decided to implement compound character support as %D versatile as possible. As a result one can define his own %D compound character support, like: %D %D \starttypen %D \installcompoundcharacter "a {\"a} %D \installcompoundcharacter "e {\"e} %D \installcompoundcharacter "i {\"i} %D \installcompoundcharacter "u {\"u} %D \installcompoundcharacter "o {\"o} %D \installcompoundcharacter "s {\SS} %D \stoptypen %D %D or even %D %D \starttypen %D \installcompoundcharacter "ck {\discretionary {k-}{k}{ck}} %D \installcompoundcharacter "ff {\discretionary{ff-}{f}{ff}} %D \stoptypen %D %D The support is not limited to alphabetic characters, so the %D next definition is also valid. %D %D \starttypen %D \installcompoundcharacter ". {.\doifnextcharelse{\spacetoken}{}{\kern.125em}} %D \stoptypen %D %D The implementation looks familiar and uses the same tricks as %D mentioned earlier in this module. We take care of two %D arguments, which complicates things a bit. \def\@nc@{@nc@} % normal character \def\@cc@{@cc@} % compound character \def\@cs@{@cs@} % compound characters \def\installcompoundcharacter #1#2#3 #4% {{#4}} keeps move local {\setvalue{\@nc@\string#1}{\char`#1}% \def\!!stringa{#3}% \ifx\!!stringa\empty \setvalue{\@cc@\string#1\string#2}{{#4}}% \else \setvalue{\@cs@\string#1\string#2\string#3}{{#4}}% \fi \catcode`#1=\@@active \scratchcounter=\the\uccode`~ \uccode`~=`#1 \uppercase{\unexpanded\def~{\handlecompoundcharacter~}}% \uccode`~=\scratchcounter} %D In handling the compound characters we have to take care of %D \type{\bgroup} and \type{\egroup} tokens, so we end up with %D a multi||step interpretation macro. We look ahead for a %D \type{\bgroup}, \type{\egroup} or \type{\blankspace}. Being %D no user of this mechanism, the credits for testing them goes %D to Tobias Burnus, the first german user of \CONTEXT. %D %D We define these macros as \type{\long} because we can %D expect \type{\par} tokens.
