I usually convert all kinds of quotation marks into \quotation{} / \quote{}
using the regex search of my editor; a regex replacement is also part of my
docx-to-ConTeXt converter script. (I see no need to avoid regexes, but YMMV.)
The biggest problem I face are mixed and wrong quotation marks, e.

Also thank you!
Patoline is partly LaTeX based, Speedata Publisher uses LuaTeX, and I know of
troff and XSL/FO.
I’d be interested to hear about experiences with other code based typesetting
engines (besides ConTeXt and LaTeX), since I used LinoSetting and 3B2 in
earlier days.

on the right side.
With somewhat bigger values, the indent disappears, but the

\setupregister’s before and after go around the indicator.
e.g. \setupregister[][indicator=no,after={XX}]

Hi,
I‘m despairing about my index – some sections contain only an image

contents.
The index entries get postponed until after the next chapter.
I guess the problem is that there’s no (text) content, but \par and \strut

I stumbled upon a few typos in the sort order definitions:

If I get the same index entry two or more times on a page, sometimes with
processor formatting, sometimes not, how can I control which version takes
precedence?
Actual use case: index entries from footnotes should be italics, while those
