Thanks Mikael for your advise.
However, I have a 1000 page document which I have been typesetting in Latex thusfar, and I am considering shifting to Context.
There are some other things to say about this project, but the first step would be to get koi8 working.
I have attached my sample file.
Kind regards,
Robert

Dear Contexers,
I am still struggling with a Russian text in koi8. The sample below, which I partially copied (from Mikael Persson's site) does not work.
Can anyone help me out?
Kind regards

Hm, there seems to be a problem somewhere, saving a file on my computer, uploading it to the web-server, downloading it to your place and opening it. It is probably the web server that tells it is not koi8-r but iso8859-1 or something. However, the koi8-r is not yet working. What is working is the Windows-1251 encoding, as in the example (ok, type your own russian characters and be sure to save the file in Windows-1251 encoding). I would recommend though, to use utf-8 as described at http://contextgarden.net/Russian . I should probably remove my page and refer to the one at contextgarden instead.
I had a conversation with Hans about adding support for koi8r aswell, but I don't know exactly what to do. If somebody tells me, then I'll do it.

PS I spoke to another russian I know, who is a Windows person. She told me that they use the Windows-1251 encoding at her department, contrary to the first russian I asked who said koi8r was the most common... _______________________________________________ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
