I see. I use prevgraf to get number of lines in most recent paragraph to compute eventually hangindent if there is a lettrine in paragraph (in case first paragraph has fewer lines than the lettrine itself, of course next paragraph needs to setup hangindent properly).

 

I guess as an alternative, I could use the callback after paragraph is split in N lines to count the number of lines, or is this number can be accessed via some other existing variable in tex lua « table » ? Currently I access prevgraf value Inside lua. Probably better than making things more complicated in luatex itself.

 

Thanks a lot,

 

Joseph

not really, as we don't ship beta luatex's so context normally either

has adaptive code or delays usage for a year

well, i could store the old prevgraf (of make that an option) but it's a

fact that a top of page is basically a change (in prevgraf and prevdepth)

 

what do you use prevgraf for?
