The following worked without a hitch:

Now I get an error in ConTeXt ver: 2013.01.27 21:24 MKIV fmt: 2013.1.28 int: english/english ! LuaTeX error [string "\directlua "]:1: invalid escape sequence near '\%'. \formatDuration ...0:" and d or string.sub(d,3)) } \IsNilReturn #1->\edef \tmp {#1 }\doifelse {\tmp }{nil}{\color [red]{ERROR}}{...
Whereas in a previous Context all went well: ConTeXt ver: 2012.05.30 11:26 MKIV fmt: 2013.2.4 int: english/english
What did change? Why? And how to repair?
I noticed something similar a few days ago. IIRC, using \letterpercent still works (untested).

No, that is not the solution. Maybe because the % has to function in a Lua gsub as match pattern. I tried dropping the backslash, not \%D but using %D. Then the error is: ! LuaTeX error [string "\directlua "]:1: ')' expected near '0'. \formatDuration ...0:" and d or string.sub(d,3)) } \IsNilReturn #1->\edef \tmp {#1 }\doifelse {\tmp }{nil}{\color [red]{ERROR}}{... More ideas? Hans van der Meer
