Hello Hans, here some features of listings.sty: - support for a lot of languages (for example C) - easy to add further languages - line breaking (see my email from 19. June mentioning \lstinline) - line numbering - different options for column alignment - escaping to TeX - layout elements (frames, spacing, background, captions, etc) - indexing - floating listings - special treatment of comments - a lot more... I don't know about all the \definetyping features (only those, that are documented), perhaps the capabilities of ConTeXt are already sufficient. On the other side, listings.sty is a very great package and mostly written in Plain TeX. So perhaps it's worth the effort. I don't know...
