Hi,
Is there a way to get the dangerous bend sign (which exists in the Donald Knuth’s manfnt) in mkiv?
The following (given by one of our gurus and dating back to sevral years) works fine in mkii, but I don’t know how to translate it in mkiv…
%%% begin dangerous-bend.tex
\loadmapfile [manfnt.map]
\definefontsynonym [bends] [manfnt]
\def\GetSym#1{\getglyph{bends}{\char#1}}
\startsymbolset [Dangerous Bends]
\definesymbol [dbend] [\GetSym{127}]
\definesymbol [lhdbend] [\GetSym{126}]
\stopsymbolset
\setupsymbolset [Dangerous Bends]
\setupbodyfont[manfnt]
\starttext
\symbol{dbend}
\blank[big]
\symbol{lhdbend}
\stoptext
%%% end dangerous-bend.tex
Thanks in advance: OK

Thanks Hans! That’s great indeed!
I put on the wiki your code
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/symbolset
but could not explain where to find the information which tells us that the desired characters are
\resolvedglyphdirect{bends}{n:char_7e} and \resolvedglyphdirect{bends}{n:char_7f}.
Best regrads: OK
