I like the Luatex code of Luigi. Though it is longer than what Wolfgang suggested (and in this case, I am using Wolfgang's solution now that I know about it), the luatex code seems to be the kind of programming that I am more comfortable with. In fact, in Latex when I was trying to achieve this, I used the python.sty package to code this in Python. To be able to do this using Lua (Luatex), do I need to learn the Lua programming language. Do I pick up any beginners book on Lua? Any recommendations based on experience of those who use Luatex here. For example, one of the lines in the code is tprint = function(s) tex.sprint(tex.ctxcatcodes,s) end Is this Lua or LuaTex? Thanks. ___________________________________________________________________________________ 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 ___________________________________________________________________________________
