custom pdf engine

Hello!

I'm writing a lua filter to generate an eplain document; but then I 
realized I would have to make a two step process: 1. to generate the 
--standalone document, and 2. to call the pdftex (plain) executable to 
generate the pdf. Is there a way to call a custom --pdf-engine to do the 
job automatically?

Curious,

Actually, an answer was in the template: if I put the directive 

%&pdftex

at the beginning of the generated tex file, most modern implementations 
tell the engine to switch to that format. So the default call to the 
pdflatex engine does the right thing.

Cheers!
