Re: [NTG-context] [OT] Quick ref for Lua ?
http://luaforge.net/docman/index.php?group_id=80selected_doc_group_id=95language_id=1 Thanks, I didn't know that. But anyway there's much more to it, since lua as used in LuaTeX has many external libraries embedded (luazip, Lua Parsing Expression Grammars, a library for manipulating Unicode strings etc.); and in addition to that all the special libraries that have been written by Taco and Hans (chapter 4 of the LuaTeX reference manual). So there are actually quite a lot of additional things and I expect the difference between versions 5.0 and 5.1 of the core language and libraries to be rather unimportant (at least in that respect). Arthur P-S for Taco: Am I right in saying that the list of additional libraries is: • The twelve ones documented in luatexref-t.pdf • lfs, luamd5, lpeg, luazip, luazlib and Selene Unicode (as seen in src/libs)? That could be a start to write a complete texlua manual ... (here I'm only interested in the libraries providing new lua functions, obviously). ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

[NTG-context] Success Story - II
Hello
Happy to report that Luatex made my life easier once again. :) I've made
another test papers for my students, with varying problems, and it was possible
only due to Lua emedded code. Examples:
Perform logical AND, OR and XOR under the following pair of hexadecimal
numbers:
\startluacode
n = math.random(10,255)
m = math.random(10,255)
tex.print(string.format(%X, %X, n, m))
\stopluacode
Encode your Name and Surname as a
\startluacode
a = {'null-terminated', 'dollar-terminated', 'Pascal'}
tex.print( string.format('%s string.', a[math.random(1,3)]) );
\stopluacode
Lucky, the discussion about Lua reference started in the list today, because I
need more knowledge of Lua to make even more flexible assignments.
Best regards,
Vyatcheslav

Re: [NTG-context] luatex
In my further exploration I came across another product, toally unrelated, dealing with spreadsheets. with the name of luatex. Yes, this was mentioned at the ConTeXt meeting last spring. It's a bit frustrating, sure, but ... Interestingly enough, this other luatex is to be parsed Lua / t / eX because the last two letters stand for Excel. And the normative spelling is LuateX with an uppercase X :-) Is the name luatex a trademark? Not that I know of. I don't think there would be any benefit to it, though. Recall that the name TEX itself---all uppercase---was a trademark since a couple of years by the time TeX was created. Who remembers this typesetting system by the Honeywell company today?
