Hi!
I'm using muse for writing some astrological notes while studying and
noticed there is problem with spacing after using symbols from 'mvs'.
Here is the test file:
\usesymbols[mvs]
\setupsymbolset [astronomic]
\setupsymbolset [zodiac]
\starttext
This is Mesha \symbol[Aries] and this \symbol[Cancer] is Kataka.
Let's see \symbol[Sun] too.
\stoptext
Am I doing something wrong here?
I tried with both mkii and mkiv, but the result is the same.
Sincerely,
Gour

\symbol[] gobbles following spaces, because it also has a second
argument for the symbol set. Use one of these to stop it from
doing so:
{\symbol[Sun]}
\symbol{sun}
\symbol[zodiac][Sun]
Best wishes,
Taco

It looks like wiki need some update...

It *is* optional, that is it. Optionality implies space-eating.
Best wishes,
Taco

OK. Thanks. In the muse (emacs publishing) now I can write <aries> and it
expands as \symbol{Aries} in 'published' ConTeXt document, so I can
configure tag-mechanism to do \symbol[zodiac][Aries] as well.
Otherwise, it would be much more convenient to just type 2nd option - in
lyx/latex one just types \Aries.
Sincerely,
Gour
