Hey list,
I have my page numbers setup as follows so that page numbers are flanked
with tildes.
\setuppagenumbering
[location=right,
way=bytext,
left={\~},right={\~},
color=colour_page_number,
style=bold]
ConTeXt chokes on the parameters to left and right:
! Undefined control sequence.

(untested)
what about \lettertilde instead of \~ ?

Thanks Luigi. That did it. Although, I think if I was using it properly
as an escape sequence, then perhaps we have found a bug.

\~ is the plain TeX macro for placing the ~ accent. Try \~a etc. The
correct way to access a tilde is \lettertilde and \texttilde (or
\textasciitilde) depending on what glyph you want.

As Aditya said \~ is a plain TeX macro.
As general rule it doesn't hurt to know about plain TeX, at least for mkii
(and yes, it's not like laTeX.)
