* ctxlua percentage format escape @ 2021-05-29 12:32 Adam Reviczky 2021-05-29 13:02 ` Jairo A. del Rio 0 siblings, 1 reply; 4+ messages in thread From: Adam Reviczky @ 2021-05-29 12:32 UTC (permalink / raw) To: mailing list for ConTeXt users [-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 573 bytes --] Hi, I was trying to use a quick calculation like the new mathfun in lmtx for an older mkiv document. MWE from the wiki: https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Programming_in_LuaTeX#Examples \starttext $\pi = \ctxlua{context("\%.6f", math.pi)}$ \stoptext But that gives an error (actually for both lmtx and mkiv): token call, syntax: [ctxlua]:1: invalid escape sequence near '"\%' Whereas \starttext $\pi = \startluacode context("%.6f", math.pi) \stopluacode$ \stoptext Works fine as expected. Is there a way to escape the percentage sign in ctxlua as a format value?

I have tried playing around with letterpercent/catcodes as well, not sure what I did wrong, but your examples work just fine, so thanks again.
