Hans, If my only constraints were ease of programming and moderate performance, I would completely agree that using mostly Lua plus (possibly) some C code for some targeted stuff that is really slow in Lua is the correct solution we are actually in agreement. Unfortunately, I have the

[NTG-context] Using ConTeXt-LMTX for modern Mathematically-Literate-Programming 2/2

Hello (again), This email is further to my previous "Using ConTeXt-LMTX for modern Mathematically-Literate-Programming 1/2" email... My ultimate goal in using ConTeXt-LMTX as a Mathematically-Literate-Programming tool, is to actually write a kernel "Mathematical Language" in ANSI-C (wrapped in
