Shouldn't it be (untested):
context("\\def\\lang{English}")
It is working.
context([[\def\lang{English}]])
It is not working. It prints "def lang English".
Thank you.

OK.
I meant just the way how strings in Lua are entered
- if inside quotation marks, escaping is required, thus "\\" yields to backslash, - if inside [[ ... ]], single \ gives backslash, and of course \\ gives TWO backslashes.
I guessed that your original
[[\\def\\lang{English}]]
could have caused the problem, so I corrected it to
[[\def\lang{English}]]
[[ ]] vs " " is a lua thing ... but when you pass things from within tex, expansions happens the same in both; you can try context("\detokenize{...}") ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
