[NTG-context] LuaTeX-plain - Get well-know function names like sin & cos to display in roman

17 May 2014

      Hi there,

Am used to seeing the names of well known functions in upright math
font, instead of italics. With LaTeX, it seems, this is default,
plus one can use macros like `\mathrm` or `\textrm` for other text.
An `\hbox{}` too, in plain TeX, but not around `\sin`, for example.

With ConTeXt's LuaTeX-Plain format (may ConTeXt itself as well),
these functions are in italics. Is it possible to control this via
the redefinition of the math fonts? Following does not work for me:

    \font\lmromr   =
       {LucidaBrightMathOT:mode=base} at 14pt
    \font\lmromi   =
       {LucidaBrightMathOT:mode=base}  at 14pt
    \font\lmromsr  =
       {LucidaBrightMathOT:mode=base;script=math;ssty=0} at 12pt
    \font\lmromsi  =
       {LucidaBrightMathOT:mode=base;script=math;ssty=0} at 12pt
    \font\lmromssr =
       {LucidaBrightMathOT:mode=base;script=math;ssty=1} at 10pt
    \font\lmromssi =
       {LucidaBrightMathOT:mode=base;script=math;ssty=1} at 10pt

    \textfont0 = \lmromr            %--sin, cos, numbers
    \scriptfont0 = \lmromsr         %
    \scriptscriptfont0 = \lmromssr  %
    \textfont1 = \lmromi            %--variables
    \scriptfont1 = \lmromsi         %
    \scriptscriptfont1 = \lmromssi  %
    \textfont2 = \lmromr            %--symbols
    \scriptfont2 = \lmromsr         %
    \scriptscriptfont2 = \lmromssr  %
    \textfont3 = \lmromr            %--extras
    \scriptfont3 = \lmromsr         %
    \scriptscriptfont3 = \lmromssr  %

Same for CambriaMath or LatinModernRomanMath. For `\<font>0`,
tried a non-math font, but it did not work. How to set
`\<font>0` to use roman? and `\<font>1` to use italics?

Thanks in advance,
Aire.
