Dear list,
I was trying to dissect math lists and insert my own trash there.
According to the LuaTeX manual for node.new one can supply id and
subtype as strings. That means that this
node.new(18,5)
should be equivalent to
node.new("noad","rel")
Unfortunately this does not create a noad of subtype rel but subtype
ord. It seems as if the numbers of the subtypes correspond to their
index in node_subtypes_noad in texnodes.w.
node.subtypes("noad")
will give you back the subtypes and numbers
I just wonder, is this a bug or am I doing it wrong? A non-working
minimal example can be found below.
not a bug .. the subtype field is only used when allocating a whatsit
because these are different (memory wise) per subtype
so, for your noad you need
n.subtype = 5 -- rel
