wasy symbols

wasy symbols

[Hans van der Meer]

I need one of the wasy symbols, the check mark to be exact.

Now I add:
	\usemodule[symb-was]

and this allows me to type set the mark with:
	WaldiSymbol = \WaldiSymbol {8}

but although the module file defines:
	 \definesymbol [checked]     [\WaldiSymbol  {8}]

I cannot do something like
	\checked
because \checked is an undefined control sequence.

What I am missing?

in that case you need: 

\def\checked{\WaldiSymbol{8}}

Thanks, but now I am at a loss about the line
	\definesymbol [checked]     [\WaldiSymbol  {8}]
What is its purpose then? (Curious, as always :-)

See http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Symbols

\symbol[checked]

have a look into the source to learn about the defined symbols:
