Thank you for this. Sadly, I still get this:

I need this due to some 3rd party library dependencies.
I also downloaded the whole ConTeXt (and LuaMetaTeX and so) sources
from the desired date but I'm not able to build them...

I'm test driving luametatex. My needs usually extend to expressing formulas in
TLA+ using nested display math formulas. Although I have suitable templates for
doing this in Mark IV, I can't reproduce these satisfactorily in luametatex.
For example, here's a formula from Leslie
I have an incomplete example that you can use as a basis for your goal:
https://github.com/Fusyong/luametatex-callback-playground/blob/master/vtypesetting_box.lmtx
In addition, I have made a module,
https://github.com/Fusyong/vertical-typesetting
that makes the whole page vertical. That is, you
ature already implemented for LuaMetatex?
Or if not, any suggestions on how can I implemented this? Like
1. How to implement the sorting algorithm?
2. Which part of the source code can I rewrite to implement this feature?
Thank you all for your time!

. The sorting algorithm should use PinYin of Chinese
characters to compare the order.
I am wondering is this feature already implemented for LuaMetatex?

and use
instead.
If you want the samelua feature sas in context, just
mtxrun --script foo.lua
is the way to go. (To be sure I cheched if i have lua installed at all
and it's some version from 2000; i always use mtxrun because after all
luametatex is also a regular lua interpreter)
