Before that call, you may need to do
\definebodyfontenvironment [19.7pt]
as well (not sure)
Sigh... It works, but it destroys the scaling mechanism built into
the module...
Replacing [all] with [tsgreek] (or whatever you typescript is named)
should work.
That was my question: the typescriptfile contains about 25 typefaces.
Is there a way to specify one math font for all of them, or do I have
to go the laborious way of adding such a line to every single one of
them?
Thanks!

If I specify a bodyfont with a size that's not in this list
\setupbodyfont[somebodyfont,19.7pt]
I get no errors, but no output either :-( If I add 19.7pt to the list,
everything works again. Is there an explanation for this behavior?

It also looks like I should define a math font for these Greek fonts.
It looks like ConTeXt will try to get certain symbols from math if
they're not defined in the bodyfont. Is there a syntax for creating a
default math font for an entire set of typescripts? I tried this
\starttypescript
\definetypeface [all] [mm] [math] [times][default]
[encoding=default]
Replacing [all] with [tsgreek] (or whatever you typescript is named)

Hope this helps,

basically done with the work.
