Hi,
I chucked it in here, for lack of a better place.
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/String_Manipulation#String_formatter
I don't understand what they whitespace does: I tried to test it with
this code, and changing the number did nothing.
\starttext
\startluacode
x = 999
context("\\type{my%wpoints}", x)
context.par()
context("my %w points", x)
\stopluacode
\stoptext
And perhaps somebody could add two columns to the wiki with example
input and output?
Cheers,
Sietse
