I found a typo in the recent version (16-06-2004) of ConTeXt.
In file type-buy.tex in line 143 one finds:

The f before the [ is a spurious character and should be removed.

Hi Hans,
I get the impression that in math-lbr.tex the codes for

Some fonts as for example Lucida have a calligraphic style called up with \cg.
If it is not present a default is taken.
However, I would like to take other action in that case, for example switching
to another font.
Thus, how to test on the presence of that calligraphic style in the current

Why is there a difference in syntax between typing buffers and typing files?
For files enclosure in {} for buffers in [], for files optional parameters, for

Is it possible to make the syntax of these two the same, because their usage
parallels each other?

Why is there anexpression error here? I would expect that the expression
number(-1101) evaluates to a negative number taking part in the comparsion.
It looks as if the minus sign is not seen as an unary minus, while -1101
should have be evaluated by Lua's tonumber(-1101).
