Latest beta, simpleslides, and font loading

Latest beta, simpleslides, and font loading

[Aditya Mahajan]

In the latest beta if I use the simplefonts module, the font database is 
regenerated at each run! For example, this file

For example with this file:

\usemodule  [simplefonts][size=10pt]
\setmainfont[Cambria]
\setmathfont[Cambria]

\starttext
\input knuth
\stoptext

the font database is regenerated at each run. If I replace the 
simplefonts setup with

\setupbodyfont[cambria,10pt]

the database is not regenerated. Any idea what is going wrong?

(In my actual document, I am using system fonts, I would like to use 
simpleslides module rather than write my own typescript).

Here is a minimal example:

\starttext 
\doiffontpresentelse{cambria}{yes}{no}
\doiffontpresentelse{unknown}{yes}{no}
\stoptext

Simplefonts tries a lot of name combinations (e.g. cambriaregular) with
the \doiffontpresentelse command to look if a font exists to find all
styles (regular, italic etc.) and now when when a entry in the database
with this name does not exist (second test above for 'unknown') context
regenerates the database.

Is this a option for you:

\definetypeface[mainface][rm][specserif][DejaVu Serif][default]
\definetypeface[mainface][ss][specsans] [DejaVu Sans] [default]

\setupbodyfont[mainface]

This is controlled by a directive. I will make that default, but because 
users can configure it in their configuration file, maybe you should 
force in in simplefonts:

\enabledirectives[fonts.autoreload]

That way you will only get a new scan when the mtxrun --generate has 
happened.

Thanks. That works perfectly.
