let's assume that this is only useful for formats and file databases (i
cannot imagine a sysadm messing around with documents in order to get a
couple of font tables done)
as it happens, the file databases and formats used to go into the tree,
but currently i default to
input.usecache = true
now, i added an environment variable so that you can control this ...
input.usecache = not toboolean(os.getenv("TEXMFSHARECACHE") or
"false",true)
yes, true, one, 1 are all equal to true so you can try
set TEXMFCACHE=true
well, your shell equivalent of that
i will upload a beta (generating now) so that you can play with it
(luat-tmp, luatools and mtxrun are all adapted)
beware, for this beta you need a recent luatex because we no longer
preload patterns but load them at runtime (smaller format, faster start,
faster run) so we're talking real beta here -)
