Ahoi!
If I use ß, \SS or \ssharp, I get always only SS instead ß.
(Umlauts etc. work ok.)
I tried to track it down in the sources, but there are so many mappings and
remappings that I can't imagine, where's the error.
BTW: Is there a spatium (like \, in LaTeX)?

maybe you still use default encoding; did you set
\setupencoding[default=texnansi] % or ec or whataver you prefer
also, try
\setupbodyfont[pos]
\setupcolors[state=start]
\starttext
\showfont[Serif]
\showcharacters
\showaccents
\stoptext
That way you can check how characters are constructed.

And what is \, supposed to do? And .. is that a hack or something
typographically correct?

ok, that's not a hack, but the \, looks like one -)

so, it's a thinspace, well then you're already served by

Oh, a typical ConTeXt issue -- if you ask after X it's already there but
named as Y... ;-)
Is it somewhere in the manuals? I didn't find it.

wait till we will have internet aware tex running ... then you get instant
update too
>Is it somewhere in the manuals? I didn't find it.
it probably is, but only gets seen when one sees a usage -) [but thinspace
or the proper typo term is a candidate for the index], so ... submit a docu
bug report to the context bugzilla site -)
in any case, it's documented/demo'd in supp-lan:
%D \test {polymeer|~|chemie}
