3) What is needed to get fourier fonts working? Is it enough adding to
math-vfu.lua an entry like

I'm willing to do some trial and error to get it to work...

If the font comes with some weird encoding, then you also need to
write the whole slot-to-unicode mapping.
See for example:
fonts.enc.math[tex-sy] = {
[0x0002D] = 0x00, -- -
[0x02212] = 0x00, -- -
-- [0x02201] = 0x00, -- complement
-- [0x02206] = 0x00, -- increment
-- [0x02204] = 0x00, -- not exists
--~ [0x000B7] = 0x01, -- cdot
[0x022C5] = 0x01, -- cdot
[0x000D7] = 0x02, -- times
[0x0002A] = 0x03, -- *
[0x02217] = 0x03, -- *
[0x000F7] = 0x04, -- div
[0x022C4] = 0x05, -- diamond
[0x000B1] = 0x06, -- pm
[0x02213] = 0x07, -- mp
There is
mathematics.make_font ( charter-math, {
{ name = file:bchr8a, features = virtualmath, main = true },
-- { name = md-chr7m.tfm, vector = tex-mr },
{ name = md-chri7m.tfm, vector = tex-mi, skewchar=0x7F },
{ name = md-chri7m.tfm, vector = tex-it, skewchar=0x7F },
{ name = md-chr7y.tfm, vector = tex-sy, skewchar=0x30,
parameters = true },
{ name = md-chr7v.tfm, vector = tex-ex, extension = true },
{ name = msam10.tfm, vector = tex-ma },
{ name = msbm10.tfm, vector = tex-mb },
} )
But I'm not sure if all of the fonts are right (I need to figure out
how to compile
Re: [NTG-context] Mathdesign and Fourier fonts (was What do you miss in ConTeXt?)
But I realized that there's another problem anyway. At least for MKII ConTeXt wants to use ec-bchr8a.tfm and that file is not present in the package.

Thanks for your reply Wolfgang. I use the minimals and have some
further questions:
1) Is there any way to use first-setup.sh to install these fonts?
At the moment there is a switch
--extras=t-module1name,t-module2name
the following quick-and dirty patch should enable you to use
--extras=mathdesign
But then you need to convince Hans to apply the patch (or maybe
improve it before that):
if extras and type(extras) == table then
-- fetch the list of available modules from rsync server
local available_modules = get_list_of_files_from_rsync({modules/})
local available_fonts = get_list_of_files_from_rsync({fonts/extra/})
-- hash of requested modules
-- local h = table.tohash(extras:split(,))
for _, s in ipairs(available_modules) do
-- if extras == all or h[s] then
if extras.all or extras[s] then
scripts.update.modules[#scripts.update.modules+1] = {
format(modules/%s/,s), texmf-context }
end
end
for _, s in ipairs(available_fonts) do
if extras.all or extras[s] then
scripts.update.modules[#scripts.update.modules+1] = {
format(fonts/extra/%s/,s), texmf }
end
end
-- TODO: check if every module from the list has been added and
issue warning otherwise
-- one idea to do it: remove every value from h once added and
then check if anything is left in h
end
2) The type1 dir is empty. Is that on purpose? Should one download the
pfb files from ctan?
No, it was a mistake. I had a fonts/*/public/mathdesign in pattern,
but mathdesign is not under public in TeX Live. Either I didn't test
it properly or TeX Live has changed their location, but the first
option is way more probable.
I have a feeling that some other font has been requested recently, but
I don't recall which one/who wrote that (I don't find the mail any
more).
