Re: Character names (was: Context 2005.12.19 released)

[Taco Hoekwater <taco@elvenkind.com>]

Here's what I can come up with. At least a few are acceptable, like the
horizontal bar. \textnumero exists, but is only reachable in cyrillic
encodings (fixable, I guess?), and the greek & vietnamese accents
are also only usable in the correct encoding. I've used the \text...
versions of the accents, but perhaps the actual commands are more
correct (like \' and \~).

Cheers, Taco
