luac5.1.exe [TO] luac.exe etc. Alternatively, you can use LuaTeX itself as the lua interpreter and compiler. That is, the same binary will act as:
LuaTeX proper when called luatex(.exe) lua when called texlua(.exe) (equivalent to luatex --luaonly) luac, the compiler, when called texluac.(exe)
So you don't even need lua anymore.
i see. but on windows you waste more than 7mb disk space this way. installing the lua binaries costs only 288kb. so where is the benefit?
there must be a better way.
these 7 meg gave as advantage - no need to install anything else (no huge ruby/perl or whatever) - bytcode compiler in sync with luatex internals - texlua has the libs that we need built in alternatives: -- texlua.cmd -- @echo off setlocal set ownpath=%~dp0% "%ownpath%luatex" --luaonly %* endlocal and similar for texluac Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
