Hallo!

In order to understand the appended puzzle, I am looking for documentations
about:

\definefonthandling
\startfonthandling
\usehandling

I have found the example about 'hanging punctuation', but I could'nt even
understand this
example.
What ist the correlation between 'punctuation', 'alpha' and 'def'????

hanging punctuation is the traditional simple model of - , ; : . and ! hanging into the margin; pdftex goes beyond that and let's you hang any char into the margin, so this is why we speak of character protruding;


fonthandling in context is currently used for hanging things but can be used for anything font related; the alpha, def etc setups are more or less derived from my personal prferences, thanh's thesis etc What you use all depends on your taste
