< From LaTeX to ConTeXt

LaTeX:

\documentclass{article}
\DeclareFontShape{OT1}{cmtt}{bx}{n}{
  <5><6><7><8><9><10><10.95><12><14.4><17.28><20.74><24.88>cmttb10}{}
\begin{document}
\texttt{Normal and \textbf{bold Typewriter.}}
\end{document}

ConTeXt: Put this in /usr/share/texmf/tex/context/third/type-loc.tex to define the bold typewriter fonts:

\newif\ifVeryBoldTT % turn this on, if it's not bold enough:
%\VeryBoldTTtrue
\starttypescript [mono] [computer-modern] [size]
\ifVeryBoldTT
  \definebodyfont [12pt] [tt] [bf=cmbtt10 at 12pt]
  \definebodyfont [11pt] [tt] [bf=cmbtt10 at 11pt]
  \definebodyfont [10pt] [tt] [bf=cmbtt10]
  \definebodyfont [9pt] [tt] [bf=cmbtt9]
  \definebodyfont [8pt] [tt] [bf=cmbtt8]
\else
  \definebodyfont [12pt] [tt] [bf=cmttb10 at 12pt]
  \definebodyfont [11pt] [tt] [bf=cmttb10 at 11pt]
  \definebodyfont [10pt] [tt] [bf=cmttb10]
  \definebodyfont [9pt] [tt] [bf=cmttb10 at 9pt]
  \definebodyfont [8pt] [tt] [bf=cmttb10 at 8pt]
\fi
\stoptypescript

(Note that this is using the more recent cmbtt[8,9,10] family of fonts, rather than the older cmttb10 font used in the LaTeX example.)

Then, the fonts can be accessed as in this example:

\starttext
{\tt Normal and \bf bold Typewriter.}
\stoptext
