Do you really a contextname for every adobename in the list? I would be enough for me access the glyphs by name, I don't a macro for every character but the list for adobenames should be filled with the information from glyphlist.txt. http://www.adobe.com/devnet/opentype/archives/glyph.html > Hans, should contextnames.txt be deleted now?

I know XeTeX offers this method but method for XeTeX and LuaTeX would be better, it could be used as replacement for \symbol a many cases, untill you have the requestet glyph in your font but a fallback mode would be nice in this situation.
