Hello,

Hey, it's really fun to code in lua: pattern matching, easy table manipulation and so on, I should have learned it earlier!

Looks interesting.

Since it's my first experience with lua, I would like to ask you for comments on the t-inifile.tex module, attached to this message.

I tried to implement a demo-mode, but there are two small problems: - I don't know how to use \savebuffer, all line-endings disappear in the saved file

You can do something like \startbuffer[thewho] contents of the ini file \stopbuffer This will create a file \jobname-thewho.tmp which you can then read. Aditya
