Hi,
In the perspective of fancyfying context I made an alternative rendering
for missing glyphs (and in the process also made the visualization
italic and bold aware which is of course feature creepifying).
\replacemissingcharacters
\startbuffer
\startlines[before=,after=]
\strut {\tf test \char 12345\ test \char 12346\ test}
\strut {\bf test \char 12345\ test \char 12346\ test}
\strut {\it test \char 12345\ test \char 12346\ test}
\strut {\bi test \char 12345\ test \char 12346\ test}
\strut {test ὀ ρ φ α ν ῖ ο ς test}
\stoplines
\stopbuffer
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=2pt,strut=no]
\getbuffer
\switchtobodyfont[pagella]
\getbuffer
\switchtobodyfont[dejavu]
\getbuffer
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
This is dedicated to Jano who wants to be able to search and these are
proper glyphs (so one can search, assuming a sane viewer).
It also fits the "new mechanisms should reduce code" bill,
Hans
