I'm considering porting LuaTεχ to a new, vaguely Uɴɪx-like, operating system. (Plan 9 from Bell Labs, if anyone cares.) What libraries/compilers/interpreters does the system have to have for this to work? E.g., I know that texexec is currently written in Ruby (which Plan 9 lacks), but Lua is straight C (which Plan 9 is built around). (If you tell me to wait a few months until things stabilize, that's fine too.) --Joel
