Hi Peter
===== Original Message From Peter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ===== I'm typesetting a text with some citations in nineteenth-century Dutch and French, in which I don't want hyphenation. How can this be done?
I now have two macros: \def\stophyph{\pretolerance=15000\tolerance=400} \def\starthyph{\pretolerance=200\tolerance=400}
At the beginning of every citation I enter \stophyph{} and at the end \starthyph{}. But the cited words are still hyphenated.
Here is a better approach:
================================================== \setupoutput[pdftex]%
\installlanguage[NH][lefthyphenmin=100,righthyphenmin=100]
\starttext
\language[NH]
\input knuth
\language[en]
\input knuth
\stoptext
==================================================
Even better, take the definition of [nl] in type-ger.tex and add it to \installlanguage[NH].
Hans: the following would be nice to have:
\setuplanguage[<name>][hyphenation=off]
i must think this over, since normally when a language has no patterns it's off anyway
\definelanguage[mine][default=en,patterns=]
not sure if that works as expected
Putting single words in a mbox also doesn't help... ;(
mbox?!? Dost thou blaspheme!?! :-)
-)
how about using \setupalign[nothyphenated] (or \nohyphens)
btw, i recently saw things like
there was this guy called \hbox {Idris} ... (another 10 times this hbox)
where of course the best solution is
\hyphenation{Idris} at the top of your document, i.e. add such names to the dictionary but do not provide
