Hello,

I have the following problem.

Let's have T~.lua file which defines a function:

---
function F2()
   context("draw (0,0)--(5cm,0)")
end

print("T~OK!")
---

Let's have MP-02.ctx ConTeXt source file:

---
\starttext
   AAA

   \startluacode
     function F()
       context("draw (0,0)--(2cm,0)")
     end

     require("T~")

     context.startMPcode()
     F()
     -- F2()
     context.stopMPcode()
   \stopluacode
\stoptext
---

Such code works OK - produces .pdf with a text "AAA" and a horizontal line.

You can find the text "T~OK!" in the compilation log - that means T~.lua was successfully loaded.

When I remove comment marks in front of F2() (which is defined in T~.lua), so I get:

---
\starttext
   AAA

   \startluacode
     function F()
       context("draw (0,0)--(2cm,0)")
     end

     require("T~")

     context.startMPcode()
     F()
     F2()
     context.stopMPcode()
   \stopluacode
\stoptext
---

the compilation to .pdf fails with the following error message:

It's strange to me, especially when body of F() and F2() is almost identical.

Why? And how do I make it work (I mean still having a function defined in a separate file)?

Thank you in advance.

Cheers,

Lukas
