Thanks Idris, it works (if you put the \usetypscript commands before
\starttext). Here comes the followup question: How to make it work with
the \digits command?
\digits{1234567890} gives ordinary figures. I guess this is because of
an implicit switch to math mode. So, how to tell \digits to use oldstyle
figures, and/or how to make them the math mode default?
