Re: [NTG-context] RFC: path relative to current file.
Hello, Hans!
I quoted this from your message:
local function toppath()
[...]
resolvers.toppath = topath
When you commited version eb24ffd, the following bug was introduced:
There is a bug here. It should be
resolvers.toppath = toppath
(double p in the right side)
In your local copy I presume, not here.
Because of the bug (I presume), you removed the whole code.
