Beside that, I noticed a smaller weird thing when using LuaMetaTeX in ini mode without Context: The default mathcodes for digits and letters have their class and family values switched. So e.g. "A" has a default mathcode of 119537729=0x7200041, indicating class 1 and family 7, instead of the expected 31457345=0x1E00041, indicating class 7 and family 1. Of course this isn't really a problem because the format will normally assign new mathcodes anyway, but especially class 1 seems like a *very* unnatural default for normal letters. i'll check it (digits get class 0) ... indeed these defaults nowadays never kick in this way
Thanks. Is there any way to convert either a token number (as given e.g. by t.tok) or a numeric cs identifier (as given e.g. by t.tok-cs_token_flag) to a token uservalue? In LuaTeX I used to use `token.new(tok, 0)` for this, but LuaMetaTeX seems to do more checking here.
Indeed there is more checking. So, when you create a token you need to use a valid cmd code and a valid chr code. \ctxlua{ local t = token.new(string.byte("X"),token.command_id("letter")) tex.print(t) } The interface might evolve a bit more. Valid commands (at this moment) are: \ctxlua{ for k, v in ipairs(token.values("command")) do print(k,v) end } So, things like this should work \dimen3456=1234pt \dimen3467= \ctxlua{ local t = token.new(3456,token.command_id("register_dimen")) % local t = token.new("register_dimen",3456) % in upcoming version tex.sprint(t) } \the\dimen3467 As does: \ctxlua{ local t1 = token.new(string.byte("{"),token.command_id("letter")) local t2 = token.new(string.byte("}"),token.command_id("letter")) tex.print(t1) tex.print(t2) } Properties like cs_token_flag are not user level and have no meaning in the interface. In fact, the 'token-as-number' is just some representation with no intended meaning. Also, tokens that are problematic or can interfere badly might become inaccessible in future versions. (I don't expect many users to use the low level token interface anyway but it's there as part of the package.)
