Dear list,
According to the LuaTeX documentation:
“The \begincsname primitive is like \csname but doesn’t create a
relaxed equivalent when there is no such name.”
I thought it would be possible to use this fact to skip the \relax-ed
definition when \def-ining a new control sequence, but the following MWE
fails with \inaccessible:
\expandafter\gdef\csname yes\endcsname{}
\expandafter\gdef\begincsname no\endcsname{}
\bye
Is this a bug or is this behaviour intended? Could this be fixed by
making manufacture_csname aware whether it is in a def_cmd context or
not?
Cheers, Henri
