What I want is to have it typeset in bold versface. :-) Do I really have to type \definealternativestyle [versface] [\versface] [\versface\bf] to accomplish that? But then, how do I handle cases like blabla {\em \FOO} blabla in normal text, where I want to be typeset in italic versface, or even the same line in a header, where I want it to appear in bold italic versface? It seems that I have not yet understood how to distinguish between font commands that are "absolute" (\versface seems to be one of those) and commands that are "relative" (like \it).
