My typescripts should work with XeTeX and LuaTeX.

Look into type-mac.(tex|mkii|mkiv) (shipped with ConTeXt) how to give

Can we agree on some versioning? (If we keep the files in some git/

I think:

a) dealing with typescripts in ConteXt is a far bigger problem than 
it should be

b) that it's fantastically good idea to have a repository of 
typescripts to address this problem

c) that there's no reason at all to make a distinction between free 
and professional fonts in such a repository

As for how to do it, I could imagine using the wiki. But I could also 
imagine some other approach, like someone starting a project on GitHub or
something similar.

+1

Actually, I would also like to have a free font database, and a script 
that downloads free fonts and installs them at the correct location. 
Something along the lines of getnonfreefonts available with TeXLive.

Good idea!
Or perhaps even better: make them available on
http://modules.contextgarden.net/ and/or in the minimals and/or in
cont-ext.zip (just as urwgothic or urwgaramond for example).

Cheers, Peter

If this would make using these free fonts easier in Context documents...that
would be awesome.

[NTG-context] typescript repository

2009-03-23 Thread Wolfgang Schuster

Hi all,

what do think about a page with typescript files for good quality free  
fonts,
we have a few typescripts on the wiki but you have to copy them first  
in your

document or in a file before you can use them.

Wolfgang
