When I recently upgraded to TexLive MKII, I learned that \lq, etc. no longer
worked in that version but that \lbrace still did. Today, I tried MKIV and
find that \lbrace does not work in MKIV. So, I tried \braceleft because
\quoteleft worked in TexLive 2010 MKII. Neither \lbrace nor \braceleft work
in MKIV. What is now the proper representation for this character?

Choose one!

\starttext
\{ $\{$ $\lbrace$ \letterleftbrace\ \textbraceleft

Thanks, Wolfgang. My document now compiles without errors and produces a
PDF. It is my understanding that one of the ways MKIV differs greatly from
MKII is in the handling of fonts. Which documentation should I look at first
to learn about fonts in MKIV (not that I understand them in MKII yet)?
