Hi, I noticed today that when running "context --jit" that return codes were not being passed back properly to the shell.

For example, with a simple file like this (text.tex):

\starttext test\par \mybadmacro\par \stoptext

context --jit --nonstopmode test.tex ; echo ", RC=$?"

The log output will print:

mtx-context | fatal error: return code: 1, RC=0

But the shell return code is zero. The below patch fixes it (I'm no Lua expert so perhaps there is a better approach):

--- a/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtx-context.lua +++ b/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtx-context.lua @@ -108,7 +108,7 @@ local function restart(engine_old,engine_new) local command = format("%s --luaonly %q %s
