Hello All,

I have an idea for an extension for luamplib.

What we can do in latex currently is add a mp-picture in an mplibcode environment.

It is a little like the listing package providing an lstlisting environment to put code into.

The difference is that luamplib executes the code rather than rendering it.


The package listing also provides a command lstinputlisting including code from a file.

Something like that would also be very good in luamplib i think.

Then i could use the highlighting for metapost offered by my editor.

Else I must write \begin{mplibcode}input myMpFile.mp\end{mplimcode} which is not really elegant.


Best Regards,

Ernst Reissner
