Hello ConTeXist.
How best (optimally) in Lua code in ConTeXt define own ConTeXt macros?
I was used recently LuaTeX syntax (for example) : tex.sprint(tex.ctxcatcodes,'\\def\\mymacro\{arg of mymacro\}')
But someone advised me that I use the better syntax: context('\\def\\Mymacro\{arg of mymacro\}') or context("\\def\\test#1{#1}") etc...
Exist other (best or most optimal) way to do?
You can use “context.setvalue”. To convert numbers in different formats you can use the \convertnumber command. \starttext \startluacode context.setvalue("One","1") context.setvalue("Two","2") \stopluacode \define\Three{3} \One:\Two:\Three \blank \startluacode context.define({2},"\\CMDA","[One:#1,Two:#2]") \stopluacode \define[2]\CMDB{[One:#1,Two:#2]} \CMDA{1}{2} \CMDB{1}{2} \blank \convertnumber{R}{1400} \stoptext Wolfgang
