1. How do I avoid redrawing diagrams with every typeset? The globe above takes
about 0.7s, which is not bad, but it adds up in a book with many diagrams.
\startbuffer[demo]
\usemodule [luageo]
\startMPpage
GlobeDiameter = 10cm ;
fill fullcircle scaled GlobeDiameter withcolor .9white ; % Fill a
circle with the water color.
drawglobe(23, 0) scaled GlobeDiameter withcolor .75white ;% Draw
the land.
draw fullcircle scaled GlobeDiameter withcolor black ; % Add a
border, if you want.
\stopMPpage
\stopbuffer
\typesetbuffer[demo]
2. How do I organize this according to TDS for sharing? I know what TDS is and
why it’s important, but that’s about it!
Hraban will guide you here.
3. Should I be creating a namespace for this module, or launching a separate
MetaFun instance? I have a general sense of what “namespace” and “instance”
mean is this context, but I don’t know the consequences or the how-to.
If the code is robust there is no need for an instance.
