Bad news. But I hope my parfillskip will work for majority cases and these
problematic with words shorter than parindent+tolerance can be fixed afterwards
by joining them with previous words using non-breaking space.
that is what previously posted alternative hyphenater code does: making
sure that there are some reasonable amount of characters / words
I'll look into your 'crap' paragraph builder lua code if this exception could
be handled programmatically without touching the source file (i.e. test for
short last line and treat leading whitespace as it was '~' if necessary).

still think we should get space of width at least 2em '' which

emememememememememememememememememememem
emememememem
(longest)
emememememememememememememememememememem
emememememememememememememememememem
you always add a 2em skip so there will never be a word touching the

yes, but this is my goal (!)
See https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2016/084858.html - case (2)
I am afraid I hasn't been clear enough yet.
Can I somehow define command globally which takes local block widths?
\parfillskip #1 plus \localhsize-#1-#2, where
#1 gap width

\availablehsize
So the following \parfillskip specification finally seems to be what I was

\setupindenting[yes,2em]
\newdimen\lastlineminlength
\newdimen\lastlinemingap
\lastlineminlength=3em
\lastlinemingap=1em
\parfillskip \lastlinemingap plus

As it can be done in one place globally and in almost single line, no special
new command is necessary (as requested originally).
i've removed the one|two|three and added final|2*final|3*final|4*final
where final is a hspace of one em by default
the only purpose of this feature is to ensure a gap at the end (handy
when there is no indentation)
for your case i see no solution apart from heuristic lua magic

The problem here this settings cannot be done globally if there are various
block widths.
you always add a 2em skip so there will never be a word touching the
right margin in the last line; furthermore you permit some stretch, but
as said before this stretch is not frozen, it's a ratio relative to
other stretch
\ruledhbox to 10cm {x\hskip2em plus 1cm x\hskip2em plus 1cm x}
so, the plus 1cm can become more than that depending on needs (onlky the
warning is influenced
Can I somehow define command globally which takes local block widths?
\parfillskip #1 plus \localhsize-#1-#2, where
#1 gap width
#2 shortest line width
\availablehsize
i think that the #1 gap is irrelevant and actually makes it worse as it
add space while you actually want it to move the other direction
anyway, this is why using a couple of non-hyphenated words or a minimum
amount of characters makes more sense

How can this happen? Isn't it a clear bug?
What exactly mean 'that amount start interfering with an optimal
solution'? Isn't parfillskip settings taken already into an
account when composing the paragraph?
it's just a skip added at the end of the line ... so like any skip
and if you give it a fill that will be taken into account in
linebreaks (just like other fill)
\starttext
\dorecurse{100}{testtesttesttesttest #1 \hskip0ptplus1fill\relax}
\stoptext
To be honest, I can't still decipher the reason why the line is not broken...
We basically need:
and I thought this is exactly what \parfillskip ensures
\parfillskip XX plus (hsize - 3*indent)
Or is it impossible in TeX to achieve such rule?
the fil is taken into account when calculating the best break points and
then the XX is fixed but plus/minus can lead to if being less or more,
all relative to other fill (distributed)
so, XX plus (hsize - 3*indent) is not a fixed value, it's XX or more
take this:
\ruledhbox to 10cm {x\hskip0pt plus 1cm x}
the skip will stretch more than 1cm
\ruledhbox to 10cm {x\hskip0pt plus 1cm\relax x%
x\hskip0pt plus 2cm\relax x}
now the glue gets distributed 1:2, so now you can guess
\ruledhbox to 10cm {x\hskip1mm plus 1cm\relax x%
x\hskip8mm plus 2cm\relax x}
Are there other ways? I can think of:
But in this case that space at the end can be completely swallowed (by negative
glue). I've tried it in the following example, but there is another problem
from page 58 - blank line. But my TeX interpretation of the above pseudo code
may be inappropriate...
you can see what glue eventually is used with:
\showmakeup[glue]

you need to keep in mind that what would work out well for one specific

well, in order to determine what the last line is tex has to construct
the paragraph so

would be real bad

just a delta of local width and some indent

line of third paragraph is still too short:
because there is more involved, like hyphenation, badness of other

well, no stretch or tolerance means that the solution space becomes
pretty small (so you might get your desired last line but a terrible n
lines before that)
and hsize is not always the best choice
(normally all these par values also depends on the global body font,
spacing, margins, etc. so it's more dynamic)
\input tufte
\parfillskip0pt plus 1fil
\input tufte
hsize is \the\hsize{}\par
dimen0 is \the\dimen0{}

I disabled that tolerance as it caused overflowing the text to the margin. Was
that the key for the functionality?
what key?
try to add a minus or negative plus ... the outcome differes per case

you need to keep in mind that what would work out well for one specific
case will not look nice in general as the last line filling is just one
of the aspects ... so, your last line + following first line might look
okay (according to whatever rules and criteria) but then, as you also
need to increase the tolerance and enable stretch to permit that
solution to be found, the rest might look like crap
it's the same for successive hyphenation and club/widow: any whole
document setting that is done to get rid of one or two odd cases will
often make the rest of the text look bad
this is a side effect of focusing on a specific typographical aspect
whereby ignoring the rest combined with fully automated typesetting
of course one can have extensive discussions about how things should
look right but one cannot ignore the text itself then: adding a few
words or rephrasing is often a better way out
(the same applies to fonts: one can stress the virtues of some advanced
kerning between two glyphs but at the same time be blind for the cases
where it doesn't happen)
(ad 1) Some suggestions can be found in
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/28357/ensure-minimal-length-of-last-l
ine - but to be honest, it is not very clear to me how to apply it and even
combine with (2)
(ad 2) This can be done using \parfillskip XXpt plus 1fil (where XX is
required gap)
setting the XXpt is tricky as it might lead to underful or overful cases
when that amount start interfering with an optimal solution (as it's
seen as acceptable overflow in some direction)
I'd be grateful for any command which would set this globally for all
paragraphs. Partly requested here http://tracker.luatex.org/view.php?id=885
One could set
(a) minimum length - default=2*indent
(b) minimum gap - default=indent
(c) minimum block width where (a) and (b) are still to be applied -
default=2*a+b
any heuristic that works for one case will make another worse (when
applied to a whole document)
(ad c) if there are narrower blocks within the document (e.g. blockquotes),
we should still have some room for typesetting the last line content. If the
area width is insufficient, the last line would be typeset without these
(a+b) restrictions.
In meantime, any suggestion how to combine a+b manually are welcome.
it's hard to envision an interface, maybe some extra key in setupalign
\setupindenting[big] \indenting[yes]
\edef\ward{\cldloadfile{ward}}
\setupalign[verytolerant,stretch]
\dorecurse{100}{
\hsize\dimexpr\textwidth-#1mm\relax
\parfillskip \zeropoint plus 1fil\relax
\ward \par
\parfillskip \zeropoint plus \dimexpr\availablehsize-3\parindent\relax
\ward \par
\startnarrower[left]
\parfillskip \zeropoint plus 1fil\relax
\ward \par
\stopnarrower
\startnarrower[left]
\parfillskip \zeropoint plus
\dimexpr\availablehsize-3\parindent\relax
\ward \par
\stopnarrower
\page
}
The 2*indent is not enough in most cases.
Actually, in context another mechanism can help:
\definehyphenationfeatures
[words]
[rightwords=3,
lefthyphenmin=4,
righthyphenmin=4]
\enabletrackers[hyphenator.visualize]
\setupalign[verytolerant,stretch]
\dontcomplain
\sethyphenationfeatures
[words]
\setuphyphenation
[method=traditional]
\dorecurse{100}{\hsize\dimexpr\textwidth-#1mm\relax \input tufte \page}
\stoptext
currently this doesn't discourage breaks between the last words but i'll
add an option for that (chars or words in that case, that is the
question) ... the reason for this mechanism is not so much the length
but more the fact that one doesn't want an (even long) last word
hyphenated.
