Sorry. What I meant is: when you use
context.setuphead({'chapter'}, {title="Some text"})
at the Lua end, {'chapter'} and {title="Some text"} (notice "Some text" is
a string, not a function) are Lua tables. TeX will print "Some text", but
it won't work for context.delayed as it is another table
Dear List,
I'm experimenting with a new syntax for ConTeXt and would appreciate it a
lot if you could give some opinions/advice on it.

Details in the README. Basically it's lua code faking tex, while remaining
a decent programming language, and saving

But there are lua apis that support delayed TeX like
`context.chapter(context.delayed'text')`.
Whether or not the function is stored in a table should be theoretically
irrelevant.

On the Lua side, you'll have to pass strings so your example works, as
tables like those in setuphead({somehead}, {somesettings}) are actual Lua
tables and follow Lua, not TeX, rules (see e.g. Lua reference in
https://www.lua.org/manual/5.4/ or, better, CLD manual in
Dear List,
I'm trying to mirror the context command
`\setuphead[chapter][before=hello]`
into lua with delayed typesetting of 'hello', but
`\ctxlua{context.setuphead({'chapter'}, {before=context.delayed'hello'})}`
does not have any effect. Could anyone help me on this? Thanks!

Hello,
I am trying to run mtxrun in a batch process and read the available
documentation here -

My usecase is being able to create PDF docs based on the input data that
comes in a JSON format (in a continuous batch process). In

Hi, Hans. The last release is considerably faster for smaller documents

Although I didn't make it clear in the minimal working example, I am using this

Otared, Jano, thank you for your answers – what finally helped was putting the
