"t-luageo.lmt" is fine, but "t-luageo.mpxl" breaks the module. I think the line

\startMPdefinitions
   loadmodule "luageo" ;
\stopMPdefinitions

finds “mp-luageo” but not “t-luageo”. Changing the line to "loadmodule “t-luageo” does not work either.

Done.

I will use &&& in my upcoming module, t-discoworld.

Is there a place I can read about disconnected paths, &&&&, and &&&? These are totally unfamiliar to me.
