That said, it is not a lot of work to create a module that reads fd files (based on the LaTeX .fd reader, which is quite isolated from the rest of LaTeX). I just don't agree that it is a good idea to do so.
OK; I guess I'll take your word for it. The other option is to lobby people developing these tools to include support for ConTeXt typescripts, or just continue to create them manually. Texfont can't do some of what I need done (for example, to install truetype rich fonts with additional glyphs like small caps).
Wouldn't it be easier to create a perl script that translates from latex .fd files to something that context can use? -- --Ed L Cashin | PGP public key: ecashin@uga.edu | http://noserose.net/e/pgp/
