Hi, I noticed two problems with the mplib `get_...` family of functions: - First there seems to be a LuaTeX specific documentation bug: In the LuaTeX manual these functions are listed as `getboolean`, `getnumeric`, `getstring`and `getpath`, but in the actual implementation the names contain a underscore. - If `get_numeric` is called while two nested loops are in effect in MetaPost, an endless loop is triggered when MetaPost tries to iterate through the current loops. I attached a patch fixing both problems. The second point also applies to the standalone mplib. Best regards Marcel Krüger
