Good day, Contexters
Hi John,
welcome to the mailing list.

As for pstricks (never used it), I have just found that there is a module `m-pstrick', but it doesn’t work with LuaMetaTeX.
I couldn’t make it work with LuaTeX either (sample from https://mailman.ntg.nl/archives/list/ntg-context@ntg.nl/message/RJR7MRTPR7S3...).
pstricks uses postscript which isn't supported with pdftex, luatex etc.
edmac is almost three decades old. If you want https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wujastyk/edmac/refs/heads/main/Wujastyk%20..., this should be achievable with ConTeXt (no modules needed).
for example, but this must be possible, and some primitives such as \baselineskip seem to have disappeared
LuaMetaTeX happens to have a primitive with the same name, https://www.pragma-ade.nl/general/manuals/luametatex.pdf#page=93.
\baselineskip is the primitive used with \setupinterlinespace
together with the fontcall system I'm used to:
\font\umirtenpointsevenfive = "MinionPro-Regular:+onum:mapping=tex- text:letterspace=1.6" at 10.75pt
Not clear to me what the second command (after `\font`) means in plain English.
The context version is \definefont [umirtenpointsevenfive] [file:MinionPro-Regular*<featureset> at 10.75pt] and it creates the font switch \umirtenpointsevenfive like the xetex version. Wolfgang
