Hi Hans,
Typesetting the following with XeConTeXt:
%% eth-hans-2.tex
\starttext
Testing... ð
\bgroup
\let\unicodechar\unicodenumber
\catcode`ð=\active \defð{^^F0}
\egroup
Testing... ð
\stoptext
gives what is intended, that is a PDF with twice "Testing... ð".
However the above cannot be typeset with ConTeXt alone, since an
error is diagnosed saying
! Missing number, treated as zero.
<to be read again>
∞
l.11 \catcode`√∞
=\active \def√∞{^^F0}
?
Best regards: OK
