symbol are cs names (\something) that map to a font glyph.
characters are input character (any ascii/unicode value) that map to a
font glyph
command is a cs name (\something) that maps to a TeX command
(\somethingelse)

inner is same as ord math class (see the TeX book). ConTeXt uses some
symbol names which map back to mathclasses. See math-ini.mkii for a list
(grep for \chardef\math...)

In the font :-) You can use (in MkII)
\loadmapfile[name.map]
\starttext
\showfont[full-name-of-font]
\stoptext
BTW, which math font are you using?
