I need a symbol that produces a dash like found in itemizations. Standard '--' gives slightly different, light dash. From the Acrobat, I know that the font is txsy. In the page you specified, there is a trick how to produce diamond (\diamond). But there is no \dash symbol defined.
You want to read chapter 10.6 of the ConTeXt manual; your question is answered on the second page of that chapter.
