I'm using a TTF file that has no ligature capability as a built-in feature. It does however have glyphs for fi and fl but ConTeXt isn't substituting them.

So the question is: what do I need to do to persuade ConTeXt to do fi & fl ligature substitution?

Any suggestions please? Is a font features file the 'right' way? I would have thought that there was a more traditional solution you can write your own feature (examplex in test suite and manuals) where you map f + f onto ff
