Hi, I have to come back to that topic, since it seems not to work. The said source code produces just the text "times" and "check" for me (see 1.pdf). I also tried:
```
\usesymbols[fontawesome]
\starttext
\showsymbolset[fontawesome-solid]
\stoptext
```
and get a list of symbols that do not belong to fontawesome (see 2.pdf).
I also tried to find the symbol file directly in the context
distribution and found:
tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/symb-imp-fontawesome.mkiv
However, most parts are commented out there, one of the few remaining
symbols is wheelchair. However, when using that, I just got the string
_378 (3.pdf). Source code:
```
\usesymbols[fontawesome]
\startTEXpage[offset=1pt]
\symbol[fontawesome][wheelchair]
\stopTEXpage
```
Is there a problem with my installation?
Additional output:
```
% mtxrun --script fonts --list --all --pattern='fontawesome'
identifier familyname fontname
filename subfont
