I'm trying to define a new language for use in a bilingual document, but my hyphenation patterns are being ignored and I'm sure I must be doing something wrong.
I've devised a minimal example that should hyphenate between vowels but doesn't. Here's the hyphenation patterns file: ----------------------------- lang-foo.pat ----------------------------- % Hyphenation patterns for Foo. \begingroup \patterns{ a1a a1e a1i a1o a1u e1a e1e e1i e1o e1u i1a i1e i1i i1o i1u o1a o1e o1i o1o o1u u1a u1e u1i u1o u1u } \endgroup ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I tried to convert this to Lua code but couldn't figure out the right invocation of _mtxrun --script pattern --convert_. Then I wrote a minimal Context file and hoped it would pick up lang-foo.pat anyhow: ----------------------------- test-foo.tex ----------------------------- \installlanguage[foo][ spacing=broad, leftsentence=---, rightsentence=---, leftsubsentence=---, rightsubsentence=---, leftquote=\upperleftsinglesixquote, rightquote=\upperrightsingleninequote, leftquotation=\upperleftdoublesixquote, rightquotation=\upperrightdoubleninequote, date={month,\ ,day,{,\ },year}, state=stop, ] \mainlanguage[foo] \setuppapersize[A6] \setupalign[hyphenated,morehyphenation,flushleft] \starttext umleoeoikaoukkoiiaaiewuewniimoaralkokolwwuiuirmlkipetnoaeteuntoilooooamm uuuauemepokawpoieoomtkeaipeailloaukoiwaeuaewurawiueanwtaoaoemmuuonwleaue mrtmuweokmikariurtlluiraapnkowuaueolmrneraiiioeauemmaamauiiolluwrltounte aaaunnoitwueemwlniowotuauwomaupaapwtawiikiuolnrolouletouunwptoioououoael kiitinouoeolopewourtuineuaermnmmioaiuienkewuiaaklinipprurainouioiomuwokr koriiaieulkppwwieoemlipiakinppprnpaiaaekapnpatritotoeormaetualeonemlppau earoeauoiimekoilliiuomirnrwarpupieiilaaueeoaekwriummikpatakeairolwpiaoaa tniweuiineeetuiektpalukluanetoiklwnemutlonnuaalpnelpniiuiutmaoakmkoiomia ineioporrieopatakomonipiuwuiwiiaueiueoluoeaaiootwuekinkwawrrwwppilewoioo itroreraeonkeuiaawalunnueoreiaaeewknailaeomomilkruruekuonkaonwwiieunonow \stoptext ------------------------------------------------------------------------ It does seem to see lang-foo.pat: $ context --pdf test-foo.tex | fgrep patterns mkiv lua stats > loaded patterns: en::2 foo::67, load time: 0.000 But in the resulting PDF, nothing is hyphenated. (I'll post the PDF if anyone really wants to see it.) Here's my _context --version_ output: mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 1.02 mtx-context | mtx-context | main context file: /usr/local/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/context.mkiv mtx-context | current version: 2018.01.19 13:42 Can someone point me to my mistake?
