ah so you know the number ...
\getglyph{name:TeXGyreHeros-Regular}{\char"2329}
should also work then
Is it also possible to select glyphs with the "Adobe names", I saw you have a complete list char-def.lua and it would be nice to write \getnamedglyph{name:TeXGyreHeros-Regular}{angleleft} with the same result as above.
One thing that you can try is to add contextname='angleleft' to the corresponding entry in char-def.lua and then use \getglyph{name:TeXGyreHeros-Regular}{\angleleft} improvements for char-def.lua are welcome anyway. Hans, should contextnames.txt be deleted now? So that only one list will be kept up to date. XeTeX offers \XeTeXglyphdindex{angleleft} (in LuaTeX you can achieve the same with some coding), but I agree that some high-level macro to access glyphs by name might be handy. Mojca
