Re: [NTG-context] Hyphenation peculiarity.
Assuming I understood Hans correctly, then using a new ConTeXt (starting november) together with TL2004 or the latest tetex-beta, all should be fine. Alternatively, an older ConTeXt (june) with an older tetex or texlive should also be fine. All combinations of new and old are apparently broken. Blame the TL guys if you must, because they are the ones that keep changing the filenames of the hyphenation patterns.

Blame the TL guys if you must, because they are the ones that keep changing the filenames of the hyphenation patterns. such 'changes' in filenames are sometimes hidden by the alias mechanism in web2c and that 'kind of fuzzy and hidden' mechanism can masquerade the problem; i first found out about the change in filename during a tutorial at the practex conference (no hyphenation, so i was both puzzled and ...); then, at home, i found out, by grepping, that this mapping file was not always present etc etc as taco mentioned, renaming/copying a pattern file to a lang-language code.pat one is a solution [actually, in core-fil, i map onto those names] Hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
[NTG-context] Hyphenation peculiarity.
I noted that context seems to be most reluctant to hyphenate. So I ran a test file through plain tex, pdftex and Context and checked the results. Context hyphenated less than the other two.

Hi John, Your format is probably missing the hyphenation patterns for english (I ran into the same problem last week): # texexec --make en language : no patterns en for en (n=1) (lang-en.pat,ukhyph.tex language : no hyphenations en for en (n=1) language : no patterns uk for uk (n=2) (lang-uk.pat,ukhyph.tex language : no hyphenations uk for uk (n=2) John Culleton wrote: I noted that context seems to be most reluctant to hyphenate.

I did texexec --make en nl and got reams of output. I moved the resulting format to the place where the original cont-en.fmt existed. Then I did texhash just to make sure. Then I ran some tests. The results were the same as the earlier results this month. I happen to have the perfect test case. I have an incomplete book that I last ran through Context in April. I have both the source and resulting pdf. The April result was hyphenated. The December results were not. The results were identical before and after running texexec --make en nl etc. Should I download Context from Pragma and reinstall from scratch? Or just find an older version on a cdr somewhere?
