The MD5 stuff is not essential in my script, but I'd like to use it whenever possible. Currently it's commented out.
Aditya's solution for the md5 stuff looked pretty smart, especially since datestamp is not very reliable (it gives a compilation time but says nothing about the revision that is used).
luatex provides some TeX primitives:
\luatexversion \luatexrevision \luatexdatestamp
There is some useful stuff: print (status.luatex_version, type(status.luatex_version)) print (status.luatex_revision, type(status.luatex_revision)) print (status.banner, type(status.banner)) Gives: 50 number 0 string This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.50.0-2010011912 string Best wishes, Taco
