Hi all (especially Wolfgang),
I have two questions about the font selection mechanism.
1. Three weeks ago you replied to a question from Pablo Rodriguez and
wrote (https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2016/085508.html):
"You have to use scale instead of rscale for the \definefontfamily and
\definefallbackfamily commands for the moment but I will change it to
rscale."
In the meantime, you have changed this keyword. I have lots of styles
that use "scale." Would it be very inconvenient to leave "scale" as a
legacy synonym / alternative to rscale? That would be my feature request...
2. The following example:
\definefallbackfamily [Test] [serif] [GentiumAlt]
[range={greekandcoptic,greekextended},force=yes,rscale=3]
\definefontfamily [Test] [serif] [TeX Gyre Termes]
\setupbodyfont [Test,10pt]
\starttext
Test Μῆνιν ἄειδε
\stoptext
does not produce any output. It I replace "Test" with the lowercase
"test," I get the expected output. Do you have an explanation for this?
Thanks, and all best
Thomas

I added it but rscale has a higher priority and will be the only
documented option.

It was a bug and I fixed it.
