My God!!! Such a big change~ So are you sure the code is stable enough? I have to push out the code sometime, otherwise it will never be ready. But it will not be on this year's texlive, that has 'only' mpost 1.005 and an outdated version of mplib inside luatex.exe of two months ago or so (0.25.4). Gives us plenty of time to test before texlive 2009. > btw, If we insist to use the mplib, why not make mpost a symbol link > to LuaTeX in TeXLive 2008? > (just revise a few code of LuaTeX, make it behave like metapost when > mpost is called, lua when texlua is called, **tex when **tex is > called) maybe next year ;-) Best wishes, Taco ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
