I tried
\directlua{lxml.registerentity("DATE","NEWDATE")}
and
\directlua{lxml.registerentity("DATE","NEWDATE")}
but neither does effect a change in the entity.
Why is that entry not set in the Lua-table entities? (file xml-ent.lua) has as
that function:
function xml.registerentity(key,value)
entities[key] = value
if trace_entities then
report_xml("registering entity %a as %a",key,value)
end
end
