Re: [NTG-context] OT: Problem with writing macros into variables in LuaTeX

Hello Gurus. Sorry for OT, but I solve one problem in parallel in ConTeXt and pure LuaTeX too and I got into trouble. I have a problem in LuaTEX with putting macro name into global variables and their re-listing. In ConTeXt, the problem is not with it.

Here is my minimal LuaTeX example:

\directlua{function put2globvar(parameter) globvar=parameter end} \directlua{function getglobvar() tex.print(globvar) end}

\def\puttoglobvar#1{\directlua{put2globvar('#1')}}

Untested: \def\puttglobvar#1{\directlua{put2globvar([==[\detokenize{#1}]==])} You can also try to replace \detokenize with \unexpanded (in ConTeXt \normalunexpanded). Wolfgang
