I also have a couple of questions about \showmathfontcharacters:
1) does that list show all and only the symbols available in the current font, or a predefined list of symbols?
2) The list shows a Unicode point for each symbol, but not the corresponding TeX command (if it exists). Say I need U+02B31 (three leftwards arrows), and I don't want to bother searching TCSL above. May I use the Unicode code point to define a control sequence in ConTeXt that prints the symbol? If so, how?

I could not find a diamond on p. 112 in my version of the comprehensive symbol list, but maybe:
\definefontfamily[myface][rm][TeX Gyre Pagella] \definefallbackfamily[myface][mm][Xits][range={"025C7}] \definefontfamily[myface][mm][TeX Gyre Pagella Math]
\setupbodyfont[myface]
\starttext You could try $⋄\quad ⃟ $ from Pagella or $◇$ from Xits. \stoptext
There is a nice document, unicode-symbols.pdf you can have a look in for a list of (unicode) math symbols.
there are s-math-*.mkiv files that can generate all kind of lists you can run s-mkiv-repertoire.mkiv to get a comparison (at the end of the file you can see how) % list here (some 8 fonts) that you have on your system: \showmathcharacterssetbodyfonts{lucidaot,cambria,xits,modern,pagella,termes,bonum,schola,dejavu} \starttext \setupbodyfont[pagella, 12pt] \showmathfontrepertoire \stoptext you can click around (on a decent high res screen) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
