reading the value of a counter (footnote counter, i.e.) from lua
Hello list, how can I read the numeric value of a counter in Lua? local c_value = ... Something like \rawcountervalue in ConTeXt, but in Lua. Thanks in advance, Massi

Thank you, Hans. I searched for "currentvalue" in the source and now I'm looking at "strc-num.lua". Is the second argument of currentvalue the level of a multi-level counter? I suppose it is always 1 in footnotes, isn't it? Best regards, Massi
