Hi Taco,
I'm far from an expert in this realm, but since you asked what *I*
want... :)
My intention is to associate status.filename and status.linenumber
together. That is, I would read and save their values consecutively in
the same Lua function so that they would refer to the ConTeXt source
line currently being processed by the ConTeXt engine.
Now you say that ConTeXt may not be reading from a file at that level.
That I can accept (being a non-expert), but status.linenumber always
returns the correct line number for the ConTeXt file being processed
(even if the file is being \input from another file). It seems to me
that if the line number within the source file is accurate, then the
file's name should be accurate, too.
Thank you,
Tad
