# (unofficial) LaTeX format for LuaMetaTeX
|
|
|
|
## Warning:
|
|
This code is in early stages of development and contains more bugs than features. _Do not_ expect it to be compatible with normal documents. Also later versions will contain many breaking changes.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
You need an up-to-date TeX Live installation and the latest version of LuaMetaTeX.
|
|
|
|
Additionally a special library version of LuaTeX's kpathsea Lua binding is needed which is provided as a binary for Linux x64. For other platforms you might have to compile it yourself. Drop me a line if you need any instructions.
|
|
|
|
## How to install
|
|
Obtain `luametatex` from ConTeXt, drop the binary into the same location where your `luatex` binary is installed and copy (or sym-link) the file `luametalatex.lua` into the same directory. Additionally create a sym-link `luametalatex` to `luametatex` in the same directory. Then copy (or sym-link) this entire repo to `.../texmf-local/tex/lualatex/luametalatex`.
|
|
|
|
Finally add the line
|
|
```
|
|
luametalatex luametatex language.dat,language.dat.lua --lua="$(kpsewhich luametalatex.lua)" luametalatex.ini
|
|
```
|
|
to your local `fmtutil.cnf`. Then you should be able to run `fmtutil-sys --byfmt luametalatex` to generate the format.
|
|
|
|
If this worked you can built (simple) LaTeX documents using the command `luametalatex`.
