Hello Raymond,

there’s two ways I know of: 1. for *latin* modern, use the
typescript “modern-variable”; 2. for *cm unicode*, redefine the
mono typefaces. (Of course, if yow need exactly cm then this
might not help you at all, sorry.) Here’s an example to
demonstrate both.

·····8<··························································

\usetypescriptfile[type-cmu]

\unprotect
\starttypescript [\s!mono] [computer-modern-unicode] % by default cmu does not 
define the variable width mono faces
    \setups[\s!font:\s!fallback:\s!mono]
    \definefontsynonym [\s!Mono]           [CMUTypewriter-Variable]       
[\s!features=\s!default]
    \definefontsynonym [\s!MonoItalic]     [CMUTypewriter-VariableItalic] 
[\s!features=\s!default]
\stoptypescript
\protect

\usetypescript [computer-modern-unicode]  % for cmu
\usetypescript [modern-variable]          % for lm
%\usetypescript [modern-variable-light]    % alternative for lm

\setupbodyfont [computer-modern-unicode]

\starttext

{\tt\input knuth\par}                                   % testing cmu
{\tt\italic\input knuth\par}                            % testing cmu-it
{\switchtobodyfont[modernvariable]\tt\input knuth\par}  % testing lm

\stoptext

·····8<··························································

Regards, Philipp

Btw, modern-variable causes different line breaks than ordinary
lm-tt but it does not appear to be as proportional as the cmu
version. Did I do something wrong?
