I'm against storing the command definition in the relevant files because the definitions are meant for documentation and it's nonsense in this way because you need sometimes references to other commands and who should you show a command for spacing which is written in a font file.
Well, they could be extracted automatically to a normal lua file, but you had a good point about the \section etc later on, so a separate file would probably be better indeed. And I also prefer the lua style, much less verbose than xml while still containing all needed info. The Tex-like stuff was meant as an example of what *could* be done, but getting a good syntax for that that is still extensible could be quite hard and why should we bother if the lua code is readable enough. However, we *do* have to write a formal description of the lua syntax to avoid confusion, if this is indeed the way to go. At this point I think we should ask Hans' how he feels about this stuff, but unf. he has hardware problems and is not as reachable as could be. Should be solved in a day or so. Best wishes, Taco
