Ah, so \loadmarkfile is the magic switch. I had the idea to use .mkii  
and .mkiv but couldn't figure out how to. Now that's very useful for  
all further experiments...

Okay, I tried this minimal definition in my typescript:

\definefontfeature
   [jens]
   [mode=node,kern=yes]

\starttypescript [serif] [jenson]
   \definefontsynonym [Jenson-Roman]          [name:AJensonPro- 
Regular]  [features=jens] \stoptypescript

\starttypescript [serif] [jenson]
   \definefontsynonym [Serif]           [Jenson-Roman] [features=jens]
\stoptypescript

\starttypescript [Jenson]
   \definetypeface [Jenson] [rm] [serif] [jenson] [default]
\stoptypescript

But still no joy: I don't get any kerning. Tried with all sorts of  
settings for script= and language=, but to no avail.
