<texmf>/luatex is coming
by Taco Hoekwater 07 Jan '09

07 Jan '09

Hi, In one of the next releases I want to start distributing some lua files under <texmf>/luatex/lua/ The intentions is that lua modules that are part of the luatex lua distribution will go there, nothing else. These are files that can be reached via the Lua require() function using the default compile-time package.path. Lua scripts have their place under <texmf>/scripts/lua already, and macro package specific lua files should remain below <texmf>/tex/, to be found via kpse.find_file(). The immediate candidates for inclusion are: from lpeg, currently not distributed at all luatex/lua/re.lua from luasocket, currently compiled into the executable: luatex/lua/socket.lua luatex/lua/ltn12.lua luatex/lua/mime.lua luatex/lua/socket/http.lua luatex/lua/socket/url.lua luatex/lua/socket/tp.lua luatex/lua/socket/ftp.lua luatex/lua/socket/smtp.lua Some others may soon arise form the luatex core itself, for example for the mapping of node (sub)type numbers to strings. These ids are static for any particular version of the executable, but they are never actually used inside the engine, so it makes sense to split them off into a lua module that can be loaded on demand. One warning and one question. First the warning, for Hans in particular: make sure you start using require() for all of the external lua modules that are embedded in luatex. As soon as this new subsystem is in place, you can no longer use functions like socket.bind() without require-ing the module first! Second the question, and that is mostly for Martin: when luatex starts shipping more stuff than just a single executable, it begins to make sense to have an installation method. It could be nice to be able $ ./configure; make; make install at toplevel, instead of $ ./build.sh ; cp <bunch of whatever to wherever> ; ... To be able to that, the current build scripts have to be rewritten into a unified Makefile.in. The new, to-be-created configure script can be rather stupid and may not even have to be autoconf-generated. The aim is to get a predictable user interface, not automating the whole big build process. For example, if "make clean" would delete the build tree (if there was one), then the "--make" commandline switch would no longer be needed. Targets like "make cross" and "make native" could replace ./build.sh.linux and ./build.sh.cross, etc. Would you (or anyone else) be willing to work on that? Best wishes, Taco

These offsets are measured from the corresponding page edge. For the TL page box direction this remains compatible with the original TeX setting by \hoffset and \voffset, as there are automatic links (if you upgrade one variable, the linked one changes correspondingly): \pageleftoffset = \hoffset + 1in \pagetopoffset = \voffset + 1in However for the other page directions this is incompatible (to aleph), as formerly also transformed versions of \hoffset and \voffset were used.

Q: Can LuaTeX produce xdv?
by Jonathan Fine 06 Jan '09

06 Jan '09

As subject. xdv is the eXtended DVi format used by XeTeX. I did a search on the mailing list archive and nothing came up. http://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=dev-luatex%40ntg.nl&q=xdv Jonathan

New luatex mailing list announcement
by Taco Hoekwater 04 Jan '09

04 Jan '09

Hello everybody, The dev-luatex(a)ntg.nl list has seem more and more messages per day over the past months. We are of course very pleased with the growing interest in Luatex, and we believe the time has come to create a general usage mailing list. Karl Berry at TUG has set up a brand new mailing list for us that can be subscribed to via this URL: http://lists.tug.org/luatex or by sending an email message to luatex-subscribe(a)tug.org Of course questions about building and patching the Luatex engine should stay on dev-luatex, and questions regarding ConTeXt mkiv should stay on ntg-context. But the new list will be the best location for all general Luatex discussion and usage questions. A request for the people currently on the dev-luatex list: if you have an interest in Luatex but are not planning on becoming an active developer, please switch to the new list. Doing so will make life a bit easier for the active developers and packagers, not all of which are necessarily luatex users and interested in discussions. Have fun, Taco Hoekwater For the Luatex team
