Hi Hans,

I started reading at \registerctxluafile in luat-cod.mkiv, but it wasn't
quite what I was looking for. But, I then stumbled on \definenamedlua in
luat-ini.mkiv. There, I learned of the function 'protect' in luat-ini.lua.
So, adding the line

protect("moduledata")

at the top of t-module.lua and then loading this file with 'dofile
(global.kpse.find_file ("t-module.lua", "tex"))' loads all my definitions
into the "moduledata" environment, so that I can directly address these
definitions in other TeX files within \modulecode{} or \startmodulecode ...
\stopmodulecode.
