typescripts and environments

typescripts and environments

A familiar issue, but I'm still a bit confused about how to set up a 
proper typescript, and how to access it in a document.  Can someone 
please look at the enclosed?

What I don't understand is how to name these files and typescripts, 
where to put them, and how to access them in a document.

This is the beginnings of a typescript to handle some OpenType fonts 
which have been converted to type 1.  What I will want to be able to do 
is to say:

	base font = minionpro-osf
	footnote text font = minionpro-caption-osf
	title font = minionpro-display-osf
	section heading font = minionpro-subhead-osf

Am I on the right track with the enclosed file?  The environment file 
is at the bottom, but I'm not sure how to access it correctly.  I've 
tried \environment[minionpro-osf], but it doesn't seem to work (though 
there might be other reasons I'm getting Computer Modern!).

Thanks,
Bruce

Hope it helps,

Thanks.  That was a dumb mistake!

But, I am still getting CM.  This is the first line of my file:

	\environment[minionpro-osf]

Is there something wrong there?

So you just use a single typescript file for all of your fonts, then, 
and a bunch of environment files to access them?

indeed, per project (which often is a series of books)

My type-scripts are placed all in $TEXMFLOCAL/tex/context/user/.
Here a type-script file contains in most cases the font-declaration for
fonts of a specific font vendor. Some type-scripts are collections
of some funny single fonts (not a complete font family).

and then:

%%% env-s.tex >>>
\enableregime[il1]
\setupencoding[default=ec]

\usetypescriptfile[ts-larabie]
\definetypeface[BlueHighway][ss][sans][BlueHighway][default]
        [rscale=1.16,encoding=ec]

\usetypescriptfile[ts-misc-ttf]
\definetypeface[Binky][rm][serif][Binky][default][encoding=texnansi]

\usetypescriptfile[ts-lucidaso]
\usetypescript[berry][ec]
\definetypeface[BodyFont][rm][serif][palatino][default]
        [encoding=ec]
\definetypeface[BodyFont][ss][sans][helvetica][default]
        [encoding=ec]
\definetypeface[BodyFont][tt][mono][LucidaSO][default]
        [rscale=0.9,encoding=ec]
\setupbodyfont[BodyFont,10pt]
%%% env-s.tex <<<

%%% piechartmp-s.tex >>>
\startproduct piechartmp-s
\project pc-master

\environment env-s
\component titel-s

%%% piechartmp-s.tex <<<

this works here.

I name my typescript files type-something.tex and collect them in
texmf/tex/context/user/

(I use the same typescript files for several projects.)
