Anyway, tehre is another thing I am wondering about: In the latest luametatex versions, error help strings do not seem to work like they used to. Especially after \errhelp{some help}\errmessage{error} or tex.error('fdfd', {'some help'}) in the 'handle_error_hook' callback, tex.gethelptext returns nil. gethelptext still works for errors triggered by TeX itself. One completely different question: When running luametatex (of course with appropriate format/lua init script options) but without a TeX file or command, luametatex does not expect interactive input but instead tries to read the input file 'luametatex.tex'. (Where luametatex does not seem to be hardcoded but derived from argv[0]) Is there a way to overwrite this default input file name?

IMO the difference for the internal_... commands make sense because they make for easier to use numbers, but having multiple primitives indicating mode 0 for the other commands seems to make this table significantly less useful because it can't be used to get a unique description of a primitive. (I may have completely misinterpreted the table of course, but given that for other primitives the values match I do not think so) it's a it work in progress as there are some exceptions that use special chr codes (for instance in conditionals several cmd codes need to have exclusive codes, so adapting it is a stepwise process; one decision i need to make there is how close to stay to the original tex codes eventually i want all to have reasonable ranges in the token interface (not per se the same as in the engine itself but that's a black box anyway) which involves some offsetting .. i do that stepwise in order to keep a working engine (the token interface is not used in context that much) Hans hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

[NTG-context] Multiple cases of unexpected behaviour in luametatex
Hi, I recently noticed some cases where luametatex behaved in unexpected ways: - The "Extra \fi" error isn't triggered, instead an extra `\fi` freezes luametatex. (Can be reproduced by compiling a document which only consists of a single \fi) - token.new can only create some `data` tokens, but it doesn't apply bound checking on it's arguments: Take ``` \directlua{ t = token.new(0x20, token.command_id'data') print(t.cmdname, t.command, t.mode) } ``` which prints register102 0 The issue does not seem to be that such tokens do not exists because \letdatacode\somedata="20 \directlua{ local t = token.create'somedata' print(t.cmdname, t.command, t.index) } does print data101 2097152 Also for all other commands LuaTeX seems to apply range-checks to ensure that such overflows don't happen, even if invalid values are passed as firstargument. - There is token.primitives().

[NTG-context] overfull message
I would very much like to get rid of the overfull hbox messages in the log. They clutter the log and I have not much use for themSetting \hbadness to a large enough value should suppress them below the threshold. But this does not happen. At least not in the minimal example enclosed herby.Is there a remedy making these messages disappear from the log? dr.
