Hi Hans,

I’d like to ask if there is any update on this:

Especially this matter:

This doesn’t work, yet (The “t-”-infix is not, as with \usemodule,
truncated). As three of my modules come with an mtx-script I just
wanted to know if this will be implemented and, if yes, when we
can expect it. (For me, there is no hurry as I’m quite busy
otherwise. But inclusion into TL is stalled because of this for
the time being.)

Thanks in advance
Philipp
