How do I get the txfonts in context?
I succeeded by using:
\input txfonts
\enableregime[il1]
but I don't remember where I got txfonts.tex from - it's not on the
texlive CD. Is there a way using the texlive CD only?

\definetypeface[mainface][rm][serif][times][default]
\definetypeface[mainface][mm][math] [times][default]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]
or even better (see type-exa)
\usetypescript[times][ec] % or whatever encoding wanted
\setupbodyfont[times]
which gives you the properly (relatively) scaled helvetica and cmr typeface
as well

you can probably find it on the latest ctan cd set; but, tex live has the
tex and px font on it, so it should work with context

If I try:
\usetypescript[times][ec]
\setupbodyfont[times]
\starttext
\tt Hello 0World!
\stoptext
I get:
! Font \*times12ptrmtf*=ec-utmr8a at 12.0pt not loadable: Metric (TFM)
file not found.
(I run directly from the TeXLive-7)
And would `times' really give me txfonts' txtt instead of Courier?

no, just computer modern typewriter which is a quite good one
of course you can create yoru own typescript file and replace 'm (see
type-exa.tex for how times is defined)

I already had a look there and tried several things but it's quite unclear
to me how that works. I cannot to any extent match the txfonts
documentation (/texlive/texmf/doc/fonts/txfonts/txfontsdoc.pdf) with the
definition of times in type-exa.tex.
For example, my first interest is to replace courier with txfonts' version
of \tt (I don't like courier at all, there is no accounting for tastes...)
but replacing `courier' with `txtt' did not work (of course).
Also, I am sometimes told to say (in \setupbodyfont and friends) `pos',
but at other times `times' - I need a book!
Is there a clear description of the \definetypeface command somewhere?
And why are txfonts not an integral part of context?
You yourself made me a devotee of txfonts (and pxfonts)!

make a series of
\starttypescript[mono][tx][..]
\stoptypescript
and put that in for instance typeface.tex and say
\usettypescriptfile[typeface] before loading typescripts.

in type-enc the symbolic names are mapped onto tx files, aren't those tx
files somewhere in yout path?
\starttypescript [math] [times] [all]
\definefontsynonym [Times-Roman-Upright] [txr]
\definefontsynonym [Times-Roman-Italic] [txi]
\definefontsynonym [Times-Roman-Slanted] [txsl]
\definefontsynonym [Times-Roman-Caps] [txsc]
\definefontsynonym [Times-Companion-Upright] [tcxr]
\definefontsynonym [Times-Companion-Italic] [tcxi]
\definefontsynonym [Times-Companion-Slanted] [tcxsl]
\definefontsynonym [Times-Math-Italic] [txmi]
\definefontsynonym [Times-Math-Symbols] [txsy]

\definefontsynonym [Times-Math-SymbolsC] [txsyc]

well, in that case i would have to look into the proper names of the tx
mono spaced characters (something for the 'ntg sleuteldag')
>Also, I am sometimes told to say (in \setupbodyfont and friends) `pos',
>but at other times `times' - I need a book!
no, \setupbodyfont[pos] will give you times + helvetica + courier but cmr math
\usetypescript[berry][ec]
\usetypescript[postscript][ec]
\setupbodyfont[postscript]
should give you times + helvetica + courier + tx math
and
\usetypescript[berry][ec]
\usetypescript[times][ec]
\setupbodyfont[times]
gives times + helvetica + cmr + tx math
where in the last two cases the fonts are relatively scaled in order to match
>Is there a clear description of the \definetypeface command somewhere?
mfonts.pdf
>And why are txfonts not an integral part of context?
hm, because i only looked into the times part, and not in the accompanying
sans and monospaced fonts
>You yourself made me a devotee of txfonts (and pxfonts)!
it's really not that hard, (on the next ntg installation day i will give
you a copy of my minimal system with all those free fonts including the
tx/px's)
[i'm willing to add all kind of mappings and fonts, but have no time to
build lists myself, so if someone provides me the names of fonts to use ... ]
