Hi y’all,
this is a scratch counter from the simpleslides module. It doesn’t work
any more (always shows max-1), and I guess it used to.
What’s wrong?

in mlib-int.lmt change this:
registerdirect("PageNumber", function() return
getcount("userpageno") end)
(beware it's there twice - i'll fix that)
btw, normally you would use RealPageNumber for such a counter

Thank you, I just replaced all occurrences of PageNumber with
RealPageNumber, and it works.
This seems to have changed within the last few years, though.

Not really ... what did change was the gleu between tex - lua - mp (way
more efficient and direct) and 'pageno' is some old plain thing, we have
userpageno ... so user interface wise it's all the same (maybe some more
actuall). What did change was the adapation to even /odd pages for
which one had to do some swapping in the mp code and which is now more
automatic
