Thank you all.
This is the feedback of your recommendations:

\enableregime[utf]
didn't work.

typing just ń
worked fine.

\defineaccent ~ n {\ntilde}
worked using \~n and

This last solution is the one I was looking for because my keyboard has no ń

thanks

Ciro

Hi all,
I finally got around the intallation of context minimals. Thank you for
those who helped. I ran my old tex files (in spanish) and found that \~n is
not working now.
It should create an n with a tilde on top, but what happens is that there is
no
letter printed at all.

I guess that you are asking about MKIV since it seems to work OK in MKII.

What is the fix for this?  Any switch?
(I know I could use \char but I am looking for a more elegant solution)

The most elegant solution is to use just ń and it should work out of
the box there.
But still I would ask Hans to add the following line to enco-ini.mkiv:

   \defineaccent ~ N {\Ntilde}        \defineaccent ~ n {\ntilde}

You can try to modify the file yourself, then run "context --make" and
it should start working.

(I always thought that these lines were "auto-generated" from Unicode
data on the fly.)

not this one; the ntild probably got lost at some point during cleaning up
