Re: [NTG-context] [OT] Quick ref for Lua ?
Arthur Reutenauer wrote: P-S for Taco: Am I right in saying that the list of additional libraries is: • The twelve ones documented in luatexref-t.pdf • lfs, luamd5, lpeg, luazip, luazlib and Selene Unicode (as seen in src/libs)? Yes, that's it. Luazlib actually defines things in two separate tables, but that is the only oddity I am aware of. There are a few extensions to the lfs and os tables I wrote, but those are documented in the manual already. That could be a start to write a complete texlua manual ...

Recall that the name TEX itself---all uppercase---was a trademark since a couple of years by the time TeX was created. Who remembers this typesetting system by the Honeywell company today?

[NTG-context] natural table splitting bug
In our XML-ConTeXt-PDF workflow, we've encountered a few intermittent problems when using split natural tables. I'm not able to post the original documents in which the problems are manifesting, but below is a document that reproduces one of the problems. The first page of the document is full of text, pushing a split natural table with five rows and a header to the top of the second page. However, only the first row appears on the second page, and the rest of the table is continued on the third page.
