Dear all,
Is ConTeXt able of typesetting text in Insular Gaelic (Irish/Scottish)?
As I see, LaTeX, with the babel package, renders Gaelic in Latin
typography (with diacritical marks).
But there are two fonts that do the job (apart from babel and which
are in utf8 standards);
one is commercial and the other seems to do the job (see attached file).

Ba ġnáċ mé ag siúl le ciuṁais na haḃann,
Ar ḃáinseaċ úr ’s an drúċt go trom,
In aice na gcoillte i gcoim an tsléiḃe,
Gan ṁairg gan ṁoill ar ṡoilse an lae.
