Thank you very much. Both approaches work on my system.

Re: [NTG-context] how to insert symbols into document?
Hi,
There is no \blackdiamond defined beforehand, but there is \diamondsuit (as
well as \heartsuit, \spadesuit, \clubsuit):
If you want a filled black diamond, you may use \blacklozenge, or find its
corresponding UTF code and then insert it with a special command:
begin diamond.tex
\define\blackdiamond{\utfchar{2666}}
\starttext
This is \type{$\diamondsuit$} $\diamondsuit$
This is \type{$\diamond$} $\diamond$
This is \type{$\blackdiamond$} $\blackdiamond$
\stoptext
end diamond.tex
Best regards: OK

Re: [NTG-context] how to insert symbols into document?
Hi,
You can use the mathmode to access those characters, as in the following
example:
\starttext
This is \type{$\blacklozenge$} $\blacklozenge$
This is \type{$\lozenge$} $\lozenge$
\stoptext
If you want to know the name of some specific characters you can use the
following code, typeset in mkii.
(Unfortunately in mkiv the command \showmathcharacters is made unavailable…
There is another command which gives a huge amount of informations on all such
characters, but not a simple table like the one you get in mkii).
begin show-math-mkii.tex
% To see all the math characters available in a font
% typeset this in mkii
\starttext
\showmathcharacters
\stoptext
begin show-math-mkii.tex
Best regards: OK

Hello context users:
I would like to insert symbols into my document, especially black-diamond and
losenge
symbols. I read symbols page at contextgarden but still don't know how to do
it.
I also tried \showsymbolset[was] etc but the symbols but I did not find these
(and many
other symbols either) in the output pages.
I found that symb-imp-mis.mkiv file defines this symbol (line 49) but I don't
know how to
make it show. Do I have to load specific symbol fonts? If yes how can I find
out which font has the given symbols?
What I tried so far included:
% begin code
\usesymbols[imp-mis]
\starttext
◆
\blackdiamond
\symbol [blackdiamond]
% end code
None of these show anything.
Thanks in advance,
bcsikos
