Hey, thanks for the quick feedback, guys...
So the package is in the usual place. This time the watchword is
"minimal" so it can work on as many systems as possible. 23kb for the
documentation/demo, 7.2kb for the zip file itself...
<http://homepage.mac.com/atl/tex/>
This is a cut-down version of the below Unicode Symbols
package, designed to be simple and usable with any pdfTeX-centric ConTeXt
installation. Little installation, minimal usage effort, and you gain
over a hundred symbols for use in ConTeXt. The PDF file documents
how to use the PDF native ZapfDingbats font along with a catalogue of
the available symbols, and the zip file includes all that's necessary for
an installation, including a modified encoding, a tfm file, and a
ConTeXt support file. No Unicode knowledge necessary.
Lemme know if it doesn't work...
