Oh, yes. May have a look at MkII. But does it use LuaTeX? The possibility of easy macros in Lua rather than difficult macros in TeX would be one attraction of ConTeXt. Maybe Eplain LuaTeX is what I need.
Let me correct that. Confused ravings. I was really looking for (1) font management making it easier to install new and unusual fonts without delving up to my armpits in tfm, pk, whatever, (2) something with Metapost more integrated, allowing easy placement of vector graphics in the document and allowing them to be defined within the document text file.
It seemed momentarily that ConTeXt might be one way, and since there was an old version called MkII and a new version called MkIV, that MkIV was a sane place to start.
You have dropped dvi and ps constrains, so without no doubt context mkiv is the optimal choice. -- luigi
