Hi all, I have just released snapshot 20070126. It is yet another version with not that many changes. Most important news: * Underscores in pascal identifiers are now retained. This took quite a bit of work. The web2c conversion tools needed only small adjustments, but most of the existing C code depended on the removal of the underscores. I had to go through changing many lines. 99% of all identifiers are now written the same on the pascal side as on the C side. This makes writing interface code quite a bit less confusing. Not everything is completely clean yet, because I did not want to change the web2c-specific C files. I often took the other approach and removed the underscores from the web2c options (like 'parsefirstlinep') in the change file instead. Ugly, but predictable. There is about a dozen or so of #defines left, that map memoryword -> memory_word strpool -> str_pool etc. * The virtual font parsing and interpreting is now done in C. (this is because it needs to be interfaced with the lua-based font loader) * I am in the process of merging: the VF stuff; the TFM stuff; the lua font loading; and the pdftex font backend into one interface, so there were some smallish changes relating to that as well. Nothing worth mentioning just yet except that luatex now will read "ovf" files as well as "vf" files. * There are a few really small bugfixes for bug reports I received on this list and by email. Best, Taco ----- Downloading and installation details: If you go to https://foundry.supelec.fr/frs/?group_id=10 you will see that there are three new released files: * luatex-snapshot-20070126.tar.bz2 This is the source tree. * luatex-snapshot-20070126-win32.zip A cross-compiled (mingw) windows binary. This is a web2c based binary, so it needs a texmf.cnf file (It will NOT work if you have only miktex installed). * luatex-snapshot-20070126-linux-i386.tar.bz2 An intel 32 linux binary (linux 2.6.17, libc 2.3.5)

As usual
deb http://www.tug.org/texlive/Debian/ luatex/
deb-src http://www.tug.org/texlive/Debian/ luatex/
Added
luatexlua
link to run lua scripts. No need to have a lua interpreter installed.
Best wishes
