Hi

Will do.

\definefontstyle is still bugging me. I gather from previous threads that it should be possible to define a new font style for casual and use that via a font switch, but I cannot get this to work. I'm not sure this is still possible.
The threads I'm referring to:
https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg00039.html
https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg39849.html
https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg84188.html
I might start a separate thread and ask whether \definefontstyle still works.

I also experimented with defining my own typescripts for Lucida so that casual and fax (and all the other various Lucida fonts, really) are easily accessible.

Something like:

\starttypescript[serif][lucbr]
  \definefontsynonym[Serif][name:LucidaBright]
  \definefontsynonym[SerifItalic][name:LucidaBright-Italic]
  \definefontsynonym[SerifBold][name:LucidaBright-Demi]
  \definefontsynonym[SerifBoldItalic][name:LucidaBright-DemiItalic]
  \definefontsynonym[SerifSlanted][name:LucidaBright-Slanted]
  \definefontsynonym[SerifCaps][name:LucidaBrightSmallcaps]
  \definefontsynonym[SerifBoldCaps][name:LucidaBrightSmallCaps-Demi]
\stoptypescript

\starttypescript[serif][lucfax]
  \definefontsynonym[Serif][name:LucidaFax]
  \definefontsynonym[SerifItalic][name:LucidaFax-Italic]
  \definefontsynonym[SerifBold][name:LucidaFax-Demi]
  \definefontsynonym[SerifBoldItalic][name:LucidaFax-DemiItalic]
\stoptypescript

\starttypescript[sans][lucss]
  \definefontsynonym[Sans][name:LucidaSans]
  \definefontsynonym[SansItalic][name:LucidaSans-Italic]
  \definefontsynonym[SansBold][name:LucidaSans-Demi]
  \definefontsynonym[SansBoldItalic][name:LucidaSans-DemiItalic]
\stoptypescript

\starttypescript[mono][lucbr,luctt]
  \definefontsynonym[Mono][name:LucidaTypewriter]
  \definefontsynonym[MonoItalic][name:LucidaTypweriterOblique]
  \definefontsynonym[MonoBold][name:LucidaTypewriterBold]
  \definefontsynonym[MonoBoldItalic][name:LucidaTypweriterBoldOblique]
\stoptypescript

\starttypescript[mono][lucss,lucsstt]
  \definefontsynonym[Mono][name:LucidaSansTypewriter]
  \definefontsynonym[MonoItalic][name:LucidaSansTypweriterOblique]
  \definefontsynonym[MonoBold][name:LucidaSansTypewriterBold]
  \definefontsynonym[MonoBoldItalic][name:LucidaSansTypweriterBoldOblique]
\stoptypescript

\starttypescript[calligraphy][lucbr,luccg]
  \definefontsynonym[Calligraphy][name:LucidaCalligraphy-Italic]
\stoptypescript

\starttypescript[handwriting][lucbr,luchw]

  \definetypeface[luc][cg][calligraphy][lucbr][default][features=default]
  \definetypeface[luc][hw][handwriting][lucbr][default][features=default]
\stoptypescript

\def\lucbr{\switchtobodyfont[lucbr]}
\def\lucfax{\switchtobodyfont[lucfax]}
\def\lucss{\switchtobodyfont[lucss]}
\def\luctt{\switchtobodyfont[luctt]}
\def\lucsstt{\switchtobodyfont[lucsstt]}
\def\luccg{\switchtobodyfont[luccg]}
\def\luchw{\switchtobodyfont[luchw]}
\def\lucbl{\switchtobodyfont[lucbl]}
\def\luccas{\switchtobodyfont[luccas]}

Would it make sense adding this to the wiki as well? I feel like what I'm doing is non-standard. I'm also repeating a lot of what's in the Lucida typescript file that comes with the distribution. There must be some easy way to monkey patch the existing type script file.
