Good, that's most easy for fonts.
I understand that I don't need to use texfont when using ttf-fonts, with this version of ConTeXt.
Right.
But still need to write the proper typescripts, right?
Not if you use the simplefonts module (except you have a unregular font family) or someone else already wrote them ;-)
Does the same apply to opentype fonts?
Yes.

Hi, Thanks for the tips! But now a real example. I've downloaded a font file called: PlymouthRock 'SnowDusted'.ttf, (Just a nice font to write Christmas cards; view it with Konqueror!) and put it into texmf-fonts/tex/truetype/plymouthrock/snowdusted directory. But what to do next is unclear to me! Frankly speaking, fonts are a very delicate and tricky aspect of TeX, which I've never understood, despite all the available documentation, sorry!
