My original question was how to generate in lua the token list to feed the data field (ie, ???)Still not sure whether I understand the question... local n = node.new(8, 1) n.stream = 1 tex.scantoks(0, 0, "\the\lastxpos") n.data = tex.toks[0]
This is the concept, indeed, but this piece of code doesn't work because: -- n.data expects a table (with a list of triplets). -- tex.toks[0] returns a string. Javier
