Subject: arrows and other symbols

Dear list members,

When I needed arrows (e.g. for pyruvate ----> lactate or pyruvate 
<----> lactate I first tried on my own (\arrow, $\arrow$ $\ar$ etc.) 
without success. I then found "The comprehensive Latex Symbol List" by 
Scott Parkin and tried various combinations of \usemodule[modulename] 
and the commands listed, with our without $$. Some worked, some didn't.
I do have what I need at the moment, but would like to know:

1. Is this the way to do it in Context?
2. Is there a recommended or particularly comprehensive module that 
covers a maximum number of symbols (I successfully tried "ams" and 
"wasysym" so far?
3. How do I find out what modules are available on my system?

Thank you, Jörg
