Hi Taco, if you change anything though, please inform the TeX Live team in advance. We probably have to adapt our scripts then. The scripts already provide a function:
don't worry changes in these mechanism will never show up in stable versions unannounced as it will likely influence many; of course, as long as luatex functionality is not declared frozen we take the freedom to change things, but in this case the fact that texlua is used for scripts in tex distributions asks for extra care as far as i can see the main problem is *not* in the interface, it's just that the underlying windows function cannot deal with spaces in the program location specification and that (at some point) probably be solved in a compatible way Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
