Hi Steffen,

I think the problem here is, that '|' is an active character in TeX
(tabular env?). Therefore you can expect everything but normal
behaviour, when using it in normal text.

This is what I use at the moment (maybe there are cleaner solutions).
I'm a rookie in this regime/font encoding stuff..



\enableregime[utf]

\definecharacter textbar   124

\starttext

\textbar ROTFL\textbar, Rolling on the Floor, laughing.

\textbar ROTFL\textbar; Rolling on the Floor, laughing.

\stoptext


HTH, Peter
