Dear Lua Gurus, what's the preferred way of including files in Lua? When trying my module on a different machine I noticed that it fails because Lua's dofile() does not extend to files in the texmf tree. Thus I attempted to include the file with context.ctxlualoadfile() but it doesn't work either.

environment.loadluafile(...)? Wolfgang

What a relief, finally I managed it: could somebody with access to the context source please add a note luat-env.lua, that filenames passed to environment.loadluafile() must have their .lua suffix stripped? This might save somebody a minor headache someday.
Thanks for the help, Philipp
Wolfgang
