Hallo,
I can not produce astronomy symbols.
I use:
LuaTeX, Version beta-0.40.6-2009070100 (Web2C 2009)
ConTeXt ver: 2009.06.14 21:01 MKIV fmt: 2009.7.16 int:
english/english
Here a testfile:
----------------------------------
\usesymbols[was]
\setupsymbolset [wasy astronomy]
\def\Sat{\symbol[saturn]}
\starttext
\Sat
\stoptext
----------------------------------
The testfile works ok with MK II
Wolfgang

It is good to know, that there is an alternative.
I will try it!
But what is wrong with my code? Why does it not work?

Take a look at the log file when the font is read.
load afm | reading /Users/wolf/context/tex/texmf/fonts/afm/public/wasy/
wasy10.afm
load afm | unifying /Users/wolf/context/tex/texmf/fonts/afm/public/
wasy/wasy10.afm
afm glyph | assigning private slot U+F0000 for unknown glyph name AC
afm glyph | assigning private slot U+F0001 for unknown glyph name kreuz
...
afm glyph | assigning private slot U+F0016 for unknown glyph name saturn
...
ConTeXt tries to load the 'saturn' symbol as char89 but LuaTeX stores
it at positon F0016.
\starttext
{\definedfont[file:wasy10]\char"F0016}
\stoptext
@Hans/Taco: Is this expected for symbol fonts and how should take care
of this.
Wolfgang

Maybe we can use the same trick that is used in math fonts (force tfm
font)
\usesymbols[was]
\setupsymbolset [wasy astronomy]
\definefontsynonym [WaldiSymbol] [wasy10.tfm]
\definefontsynonym [WaldiSymbolBold] [wasyb10.tfm]
\def\Sat{\symbol[saturn]}
\starttext
\Sat
\stoptext
So, symb-was can be changed accordingly.
Aditya
