Subject: \registerctxluafile vs \ctxloadluafile
Date: Wed, 25 Jul 2012 16:28:15 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAF=dkzxajS_YFwXHJHT0FgVx3=Pk76cqT4sfRN0bxWOftb1KfQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi all,

To load the lua functions in a file mycode.lua, I can use one of these
two commands:
    \registerctxluafile{mycode}{0.1}
    \ctxloadluafile{mycode}\
Here 0.1 is the version number, which is only recorded if
`environment.initex` is true.

As far as I can tell they differ only in this: the second command
registers mycode.lua as having version number `nil`. Questions:
1. Can these commands be used ad-hoc, or should they be reserved for
module-writing?
(1b. If reserved, what alternative for users?)
2. Is anything ever done with the version number?
3. When is `initex.environment` true? (Approximate answer is okay.)

Cheers,

Sietse
