Dear all,
I hope this doesn't get me banned from the ConTeXt list. What is the easiest/best way to add emoticons in ConTeXt as letters/symbols?
In LaTeX, there is a package wasysym that gives \smiley and \frownie. It appears to be based at least partially on MetaFont code
by Taco from 1998?
I am aware that one can use images as characters as well, but I am looking for a cleaner solution.
Incidentally (and irrelevant for my current purposes), my dream/nightmare would be to have animated emoticons in a PDF file. Is that at all possible?
Thanks,
Matthias

Something between a dream and nightmare :
\startuseMPgraphic{smile}
draw image (
path p ; p := (0,2) .. (2,2) .. (0,-2) ;
draw p randomized .5 ;
draw (0.5,1) ;
draw (0.5,-1) ;
) xsized EmWidth ;
\stopuseMPgraphic
\definesymbol[smile][\useMPgraphic{smile}]
\starttext
\startTEXpage[width=20em]
\dorecurse{100}{\dontleavehmode\symbol[smile] }
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
