I think this is more a TeX- than a ConTeXt-question, but I hope you can help me. I must write some family data and need the symbols for "born" and "died". In LaTeX there are \textborn and \textdied. How are they reachable in TeX/ConTeXt? Further, pagans don't like stars and croesses but use rune symbols for "born" and "died", the first like a tree with three branches, the second like in the nuclear disarmament symbol ("peace" symbol). They're not contained in the "futhold" runes font. Does anyone know a font that contains these?
