I do not want to sound unfriendly, but this is a ConTeXt mailing list,
not a LuaLaTeX mailing list. It would be better if you would direct
lualuatex questions to the general luatex list <luatex@tug.org>.

Exactly. lua input files are much more sane than tex files: if you write
a newline, you get a newline. The Omega is a side-effect of the font
you use.

postprocess the string with string.gsub.
