Here's an example:

I've seen these printed (not handwritten) in grammar guides, so I was wondering if formatting them with TeX was possible at all.
Thanks,

I'm pretty much a new user to ConTeXt and actually any form of TeX, so forgive me if my question sounds ignorant. Is there any way to format
editor's symbols (like those used for demonstration in grammatical textbooks) in a block of text using ConTeXt or LaTeX (preferably with
the former)? If not, then does anyone know how I might do this some other way besides actually writing it out by hand?
Forgive me, but could you be more specific? Do you have any links to examples of these symbols, etc.? Are they encoded in Unicode?

Look at the U-2000 encoding block; you will find at least one character available, ⁁ (U-2041), the caret-insertion mark. What's not covered by Unicode would need a package (or at least a few definitions), perhaps based on metapost. I am not aware of any such package for context; have no info about latex.
