سلام Mehdi,

Well, the easy way is to make E8C8 active then \define E8C8 to be the  
character 002E. It sounds like XeTeX has a dedicated mechanism. But since  
I don't use XeTeX maybe Mojca or one of the other XeTeX experts can look  
at this.

You may not even need active char's: There should be a way to control the  
separator char in \setupsection. I'm at work right now but maybe I can  
look at this later.

Can you send a sample file?

Best wishes
Idris
