Just like in luatex 0.79.1, log files are 1 character too wide. They should be 79 characters, plus an EOL = 80 characters.
Consider eol a separator (could as well would be cr+lf on windows).
Please compare the two log files for this source:
One can adapt the configuration files for luatex to be one char less than default if needed. (Fwiw: context sets up lines to be 1000 in length.)
What configuration file(s) are you talking about? The one I know is texmf.cnf, which sets max_print_line to 79, for all engines. You can change that, of course, but luatex will always use one character more than the other engines. Even worse: the \message command obeys the max_print_line setting, while luatex takes one character more. As a result, the log file becomes unparsable, having different maximum line lengths in one file. See the attached source and the pdftex (lines 7&8)/luatex (lines 5&6) logs. As for the modernization of log files you talked about off the record: It would be really modern to not impose any maximum line length by set setting max_line_length to, say, 1e9. And to do that for all engines, not just luatex. -- Wybo
