I am using Latin Modern Roman to typeset some proceedings and need the
following characters in regular, italic, and small caps:
Character: ṉ U+1E49
Name: LATIN SMALL LETTER N WITH LINE BELOW
Character: Ṉ U+1E48
Name: LATIN CAPITAL LETTER N WITH LINE BELOW
Character: ḻ U+1E3B
Name: LATIN SMALL LETTER L WITH LINE BELOW
Character: Ḻ U+1E3A
Name: LATIN CAPITAL LETTER L WITH LINE BELOW
Character: ṟ U+1E5F
Name: LATIN SMALL LETTER R WITH LINE BELOW
Character: Ṟ U+1E5E
Name: LATIN CAPITAL LETTER R WITH LINE BELOW
These characters are available in Computer Modern Unicode (although
not, it seems, in small caps). Still, I would prefer to still with LM.
I'm wondering if there is a way in Context to set up these characters
on the fly, say with something along the lines of "newunicodechar"?
\newunicodechar{<char>}{<code>}
\newunicodechar{ā}{\accent"0304 a}
newunicodechar -- Definitions of the meaning of Unicode characters

Just to say that I seem to have resolved this (& properly I hope).
I read these two pages:
https://www.contextgarden.net/Faking_characters
https://source.contextgarden.net/tex/context/base/mkiv/enco-ini.mkiv?search=textcedilla
and have included the following with my setups:
% Additional Characters
\definecharacter llowmacron {\buildtextmacron l}
\definecharacter Llowmacron {\buildtextmacron L}
\definecharacter nlowmacron {\buildtextmacron n}
\definecharacter Nlowmacron {\buildtextmacron N}
\definecharacter rlowmacron {\buildtextmacron r}
\definecharacter Rlowmacron {\buildtextmacron R}
\define\lLM{\llowmacron}
\define\LLM{\Llowmacron}
\define\nLM{\nlowmacron}
\define\NLM{\Nlowmacron}
\define\rLM{\rlowmacron}
\define\RLM{\Rlowmacron}
This seems to do it, although if there is a better way please feel
free to say.
Best, Richard

\definefontfeature[default][default][compose=yes]
\starttext
ṉṈḻḺṟṞ
\stoptext
So now you have to wikify both methods ... (this is one of those wiki
pages that still describes mkii i guess, but you can ask Pavneet about
the best place).
