Does
context --arguments="myVar=myValue" test
work too ?
Yes, I'm using bash, so --arguments="myVar=myValue" is the same as
--arguments=myVar=myValue
That means, context does not see the quotes.
OK, in this way syntax looks less strange
It's not the syntax of the cmd-line that looks strange, it's the syntax how
to get the value of the variable:
\ctxlua{tex.print(document.arguments["arguments=myVar"])}
I'm quite sure, that this is not Hans' intention.
As I've written yesterday, I suppose, that the following syntax is wanted:
\getvariable{environment}{myVar} but this does not work...
how does it look with:
local flag, value = argument:match("^%-+(.-)=(.-)$")
.+ -> .-
