Hi Thomas,
I had to do some work with regard to this issue recently.
What was mentioned on this list, is, that \fontchar is a command which will
stay.
\setupbodyfont[Myfont,rm,12pt]
\definesymbol[Q.alt] [\fontchar{Q.alt}]
\def\Qa{\symbol[Q.alt]}
The easiest way to get a stable environment is to use the char-names from the
font. You can extract a table with all char-names with
\usemodule[fnt-10]
\setupbodyfont[Myfont,rm,12pt]
\starttext
\ShowCompleteFont{Myfont.otf}{10pt}{1} % fontname, size,columns
% \ShowAllGlyphs {Myfont}{48pt}{4} % fontname, size,columns
\stoptext
Kind regards
Willi
