Hi Hans,
I'm doing some further experiments with the utf and lpeg libraries. This
code fails, and I don't understand why:
local s = "Ä"
print(characters.uccode(s))
mtxrun --script test.lua
./test.lua:3: attempt to index global 'characters' (a nil value)
mtxrun has al the basic modules in it but not the character ones
(thinking of it, i can add an autoload for that, maybe i should do that)
so you need:
require "char-ini"
local s = "Ä"
print(characters.uccode(s))
which will load char-def.lua (you really don't want that in mtxrun.lua
embedded) and char-ini.lua
