Hi Hans,

ok, you're right. What I meant: after loading lm, no further work is needed
to get bold tt.

In fact, you are never backward compatible. Just an example:
\setupindenting[medium] is now \setupindenting[medium]
And there are a lot more.
If someone does not want bold tt in lm, then there could be a switch like
"\nobftt".

Nevertheless: thanks for your suggestions, they work very well!

Cheers, Peter

P.S.: Any comments about bold small caps?
