Subject: [***SPAM***] Re: [***SPAM***] Symbols for footnotes not working

It didn't work. Either with texexec or with context.
Here is a simpler test case
-------------------------------- start
% basic test to change footnotes bullet to a symbol
% basice test to change footnotes bullet to a symbol
% \setupfootnotes[rule=off] % had no affect
\defineconversion[fnsym]{ \dagger,*,**,***} % etc.
\setupfootnotes[conversion=fnsym, numberconversion=fnsym] % Doesn't work
\setupnotation[footnote][numberconversion=fnsym,alternative=text] % Doesn't work
% conversion=set fnsym or conversion=fnsym does't work
% numberconversion=fnsym or numberconversion=set fnsym doesn't work
\starttext
This is a footnote\footnote{a fnote}\\
And another for clarity\footnote{the 2nd footnote.}
\stoptext
----------------end the above does not produce a dagger footnote bullet (only std numbers)
It should be a simple thing to do, but I've tried a lot of combinations..
Any help would be appreciated.
