Re: [NTG-context] Problem with first setup of StandAlone ConTeXt
Dear Otared: Thank you very much! The third solution works very well when I select the "ConTeXt-MKIV" program. I am still experimenting with the other two solutions, but at least I now have a method to get started learning ConTeXt.

[NTG-context] inter-word space in bibliographies
The appended code is supposed to allow reduction of the inter-word spacing in my bibliographies but it does not. Adjusting the \spaceskip in the setups for [tightspace] does not seem to make any difference. Any suggestions will be most welcome.

[NTG-context] [fontloader/old] mixed substitution / ligatures feature
Hi Hans, in the old loader, defining a feature containing mixed ligature / substitution causes a crash. Here’s an example: \enabletrackers [otf.loading] \startluacode fonts.handlers.otf.addfeature ("dunno", { { type = "substitution", data = { [0x0022] = 0x201D }, prepend = true, }, { type = "ligature", data = { [0x2013] = {0x002D, 0x002D} }, prepend = true, }, }) fonts.handlers.otf.features.register { name= "dunno", description = "bug demo", } \stopluacode \definefontfeature [myfeat] [default] [dunno=yes,liga=yes,mode=node] \definefont [somefont] [file:cmunrm.otf*myfeat] \starttext \somefont foo bar " baz \stoptext This crashes in font-otn on account of a number being indexed. This used to work -- anything that can be done about it?
