From ConTeXt's Wiki Garden the below should work, but it isn't.
How can this be accomlished. I want to use just \dagger for the symbol, but
any symbol would do.
\definesymbol[4]{\dagger]
\starttext
\defineconversion[dagger][{\dagger},{\dagger}] % use a \dagger for the
footnote.
\setupfootnotes[conversion=set dagger,location=text]
This is the dagger, \dagger{}I want to use for reference\footnote{Will
the dagger appear}.
A second line here for robustness.\footnote{It's a number still.}
\stoptext
\setupnotation[footnote][numberconversion=dagger,alternative=text]
Also I could find no explanations for what a set is, as in conversion=set 1
or 2 or 3 etc. What is set 1 or 2 or 3?
A set is a list with symbols:
\starttext
\dorecurse {8}{\convertnumber{set 0}{\recurselevel}\quad}\par
\dorecurse {9}{\convertnumber{set 1}{\recurselevel}\quad}\par
\dorecurse{12}{\convertnumber{set 2}{\recurselevel}\quad}\par
\dorecurse{15}{\convertnumber{set 3}{\recurselevel}\quad}\par
\stoptext
