Re: [NTG-context] Multiple cases of unexpected behaviour in luametatex

Especially after \errhelp{some help}\errmessage{error} or tex.error('fdfd', {'some help'}) in the 'handle_error_hook' callback, tex.gethelptext returns nil. gethelptext still works for errors triggered by TeX itself. The error code has been rewritten but that already happened long ago, and i never came to hooking the errhelp into that (rather trivial but we never use that in context anyway), I'll look at it. One completely different question: When running luametatex (of course with appropriate format/lua init script options) but without a TeX file or command, luametatex does not expect interactive input but instead tries to read the input file 'luametatex.tex'. (Where luametatex does not seem to be hardcoded but derived from argv[0]) Is there a way to overwrite this default input file name? No, as that is a side effect of the 'rest of the command line being read after an injected \input' and that is not the case in luametatex. There are a few command line arguments and --jobname is one of then. That bit won't change but one can deal with that in Lua (there is an input line callback so i might even drop the left over bits of those terminal related features).

[NTG-context] Converting a CSV file to a Lua table and Lua file
Hi all, I have a bash script which converts a CSV file into a Lua table, which is then used in ConTeXt. It works fine, but I wonder whether there is a code within LuaMetaTeX for doing this directly there (writing a new file which contains the Lua table). This would be more efficient and neater. Thus a CSV file « example.csv » containing the lines: X,Y,Z 0.05597,0.6612,0.8618 0.156804,0.8784,0.961 0.496804,0.8784,0.9324 0.176804,0.648,0.9643 would be converted and wriiten into a lua file « example.lua » containing the lines: return{ -- {X,Y,Z}, {0.05597,0.6612,0.8618} {0.156804,0.8784,0.961} {0.496804,0.8784,0.9324} {0.176804,0.648,0.9643} } Thanks in advance for any help: Otared K. ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
