Hi all,
I get an error when I run this code:
\ctxlua{font.getfont( font.current() )}
(Complete example below.) Oddly, whether or not this fails
depends on the font. The issue does occur with both today’s beta
and Tex Live. The error message is
error: .../context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/node-inj.lua:97:
attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'factor' (a nil value)
At the same time, in Plain the equivalent code works fine for all
fonts. Bug or feature?
it's a side effect ... it looks like font.getfont operates on the table
passed to tex and when you request it it probably fills in some data
(like parameters) thereby overloading / wiping out existing stuff so
after that call the data structure as context uses (and needs) it is
messed up
add this after the definition of definers.read(specification,size,id)
and it will probably work ok
function font.getfont(id)
return fontdata[id] -- otherwise issues
end
(I'll add a similar overload someplace else.)
Best regards
Philipp

\starttext
foo
\ctxlua{font.getfont( font.current() )}
bar
\stoptext
in context you can try this:
\startluacode
function font.getfont(id)
return fonts.hashes.identifiers[id]
end
\stopluacode
\starttext
foo
\ctxlua{inspect(font.getfont( font.current()).parameters )}
bar
\stoptext
if you comment the function overload you see the difference
