Sorry, Denis and I agreed to postpone it one week and meet on October _12th_, same time. I’ll send a reminder. Since there was not much interest, it wouldn’t make sense to start without him.

[NTG-context] Running the examples from METAFUN-p
Hi! I am looking to METAFUN and I wanted to follow the Growing Graphics demonstration (page 314-- ). I copied the instructions and everything went OK up to page 320; the command to place the figure with a button returns an error: \stopoverlay}} 1 >> %% !TeX program = ConTeXt 2 3 4 \starttext 5 6 \startbuffer[a] 7 def start_everything = enddef ; 8 def stop_everything = enddef ; 9 \stopbuffer 10 11 \startbuffer[b] The control sequence at the end of the top line of your error message was never \def'ed. You can just continue as I'll forget about whatever was undefined. It looks like \stopoverlay is not known!!! but \startoverlay is recognised!

Yes, there would have to be a pgfsys-luametatex.def and some detection code to switch the driver appropriately but that latter part is easy. I'm not too sure what is needed for the former though for LMTX. When I last looked at it about a year ago it was completely unusable with the LuaTeX driver because position tracking primitives were removed (\pdflastxpos, \pdflastypos) and box keywords had changed (\hbox dir TRT). Some catcode trickery in pgfplots also had stopped working (https://github.com/pgf-tikz/pgfplots/pull/353).
