Thanks, fixed this (in repos). The code assumed that there always was a message.
(B) results in:
This is LuaTeX, Version snapshot-0.25.2-2008041019 (Web2C 7.5.6) (Error.tex ! LuaTeX error [string "luas[0]"]:1: . l.5 \directlua0{error('')} % B ?
I've added the stack traceback to the output. It does not become less confusing, though: This is LuaTeX, Version snapshot-0.25.3-2008042911 (Web2C 7.5.6) (error.tex ! LuaTeX error [string "luas[0]"]:1: test error stack traceback: [C]: in function 'error' [string "luas[0]"]:1: in main chunk. l.4 \directlua0{error('test error')} % B ? ) Best wishes, Taco
