Re: [NTG-context] Getting the width of an expression inside lua

Hi Hans,

...

Would there be any danger of overwriting an existing box by doing this? I'm not quite sure how this boxing thing works... well, you can allocate a box for that purpose

I couldn't find any docs on allocating boxes. The only thing I could come up with, is using #tex.box. Is that what you mean?

just try .. I'll do that, as soon as I've written enoug of my report so I can warrant fiddling around with the formatting and lua again (if I'm not careful, I'll have a very neatly formatted, but empty, report in the end :-p)
