[NTG-context] Making all bold faced text colored?

2011-03-11 Thread Alasdair McAndrew
In some overheads, I'd like all bold-faced font to appear in a given color,
say red.  How do I set this up, so that {\bf some text} will display some
text in red?

Thanks,
Alasdair

Fonts and colors are unrelated properties (and always will be in 
context). The way to go is abstraction:


\definestartstop[important][color=red,style=bold]

test {\important test} or \important{test} test ...

Thank you very much - that makes sense!

I'm moving slowly to ConTeXt after many years of LaTeX - so expect lots of
elementary questions from me, at least initially!

Thanks again,
Alasdair
