Hello,
I am sorry, I am novice in this maillist and in Lua(TeX) too. I dont
know if my problem isn't off topic.
My inquiry is here: Is it make possible with variables in Lua(TeX) do
for similar "hara-kiri" like in Perl or PHP by this example?:
$a="b";
$$a="456";
print $b; # result 456
There is no symbol dereferencing in lua. This is a good thing(tm),
in my opinion. If you want trickery like this, you have to resort
to loadstring (which is the lua equivalent of eval)
Best wishes,
Taco
