Dear list,

Is it possiblet to make implicit plots (i.e. ploting the curves
described by equations) in MetaFun? I cannot find anything about them
in the MetaFun manual.

For example, in Mathematica I can write something like

ContourPlot[2 x^5 + x y + y^5 == 0, {x, 0, 2}, {y, -2, 1/2}]

to get the attached figure.

The closest I have found which is something MetaPost-like, is the
levelcurve command in mfpic (see for example this answer
https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/405527/52406).

If this is not currently possible in MetaFun, what is the simplest way
to proceed (I want the same style of the plots as the other ones in my
doc)? Is it to

1) somehow run mfpic from within ConTeXt?
2) export points from Mathematica and plot them in ConTeXt (how could
that be done?). In the latter case, say I have the points (0,0),
(0.4,1), and (0.8,2) exported to a file. What format should it be in
to be easily imported and plot in MetaFun?
3) some other way?
