Hi,

On Windows, we have the consola font. Consider the MWE:

\starttext
\definedfont[name:consola*default at 12 pt]
-
\stoptext

The output PDF is correctly generated with recent versions of ConTeXt LMTX.
The hyphen is, however, mapped to a soft hyphen
<https://unicode-table.com/en/00AD/> by means of the ToUnicode table which
contains:
    beginbfchar
        <015E> <00AD>
    endbfchar

Consequently, when copying the text from the PDF and pasting in an editor
or a console, the soft hyphen is pasted.

I would like to change the ToUnicode information to an ordinary hyphen-minus
<https://unicode-table.com/en/002D/>:
    beginbfchar
        <015E> <002D>
    endbfchar

I have tried with a goodies file, and an updated MWE:

--- 8< ------------------------------------------
return {
   name = "consola",
   version = "1.00",
   comment = "",
   author = "",
   copyright = "",
   remapping = {
      tounicode = true,
      unicodes = {
         hyphen = 0x002D,
      },
   },
}
--- 8< ------------------------------------------
\definefontfeature[consola][mode=base, goodies=consola, unicoding=yes]
\starttypescript[mono][consolas]
  \definefontsynonym[ConsolasRegular][file:consola][features=consola]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript[mono][consolas]
  \definefontsynonym[Mono][ConsolasRegular]
\stoptypescript
\definetypeface[Body][tt][mono][consolas][default]
\setupbodyfont[Body, ss, 10pt]

\starttext
\tt -
\stoptext
--- 8< ------------------------------------------

Unfortunately, this has no effect.

Please tell me how to correctly update ToUnicode information with a goodies
file.

Cheers,
Christoph
