hi some questions about luatex (www.luatex.org) 1) will be possible some code like \luatry{% ...tex code} \luaexcept{ ..tex code}

Guess at what you want: maybe, but not right away. The \luatry would have to save quite a bit of state information for this to be useful, which is not feasible on short notice (imagine having to save some 400+ globals and hooking into a few dozen data structure operations)

2) will be possible to embedding some other language ie Python (of course, reading the C source) ?

If you want to change the sources yourself, then yes. Otherwise no. If luatex were to allow this without recompile, nobody could rely on a stable platform for interchange of documents. Greetigngs, Taco
