Hi Mojca,

thank you for your answer. Now it actually works with these braces. I
tried to do the same to get \hat working. Adding

  \definemathsymbol [hat]      [accent] [mr] ["2]

(inside \startmahtcollection[default] \stopmathcollection) from
math-fou.tex, however $\hat{f}$ now gives f without a hat. Do I
missunderstand something?

However, it would be nice to get these math-fou.tex working. I read
from the LaTeX file fourier.sty the line
\DeclareMathAccent{\hat}{\mathalpha}{operators}{2}
but I'm not sure howto translate that into ConTeXt code, the naive

  \definemathsymbol [hat]      [alpha] [op] ["2]

did not work...

Once this is fixed I can collect the needed files and send them to
you(?) to get them included in the minimals if that is what people
want (or make a package of it if that is better)

Best regards, Mikael

PS, I'm currently testing with mkiv, with a first-setup.sh:ed updated
minimal context.
