Awesome Fonts in item lists

Awesome Fonts in item lists

[Romain Diss]

Hi all,

I'm not a font expert with ConteXt so maybe my question is trivial but
is there a simple way to use Font Awesome Icons in ConTeXt, for example
as symbols in an item list.

Thanks in advance.

All the best.

Thank you for the response. The problem is that my text editor use a
font that can not display the Font Awesome icons in my TeX source file,
so I need a way to make command to call an icon without copying and
pasting it. Something like:
\def\fa-arrow-left{%character with unicode []}

Thank you.
