Hi,
I use tex.linebreak() to break text into lines. Now I'd like to
detect if there has been an overfull hbox in order to re-format the
paragraph with different parameters.
Vboxes do not keep track of overfull horizontal boxes, they only
care about the vertical direction. tex.linebreak() returns a
table containing some information about the created paragraph,
and the 'demerits' key in that may be helpful. Otherwise, you
need to do a traversal of the vlist's contents.
Best wishes,
