I am trying to define bold math myself, but encounter a problem with
the typescripts.
Further probing into this matter (previous mail, see below) shows
that the typescript delineated by ****'s is NOT USED AT ALL!
(Calling \setupformulas[method=bold] makes no difference).
It therefore does not seem a problem in the math family assignments
in font-bfm.tex, as I first suspected.
Is there some special invocation needed for hooking up a user defined
font set into $\bfmath ...$?
If have looked into font-bfm.tex and font-ini.tex but could not
figure it out.
Clearly I am misunderstanding the inner workings here, but I have no
clue in which direction to look.

As always, when desperately posting the problem, something suggests
itself that brings a solution of some sort.
I looked into the definition of \bfmath, traced its execution and
found out that afterall my own [bfmath] typescript was indeed used!
But in order to get the same behaviour between normal math (variables
set in MathItalic) and bold math I had to change the definition of
\bfmath:
\def\bfmath{\bf\mf\synchronizesymb\mi}
That is, the last font switch made to \mi instead of \mf as is done
font-ini.tex.
Then I see the same behaviour in math and bfmath, that is MathItalic
with $etc$ and MathItalicBold with $\bfmath etc$.
My question to Hans Hagen: Should this change be followed in font-
ini.tex?
Personally, I feel confused by having math and bold math behaving
differently.
