-- This started as an experiment: generating context code at the lua end. After all
-- it is surprisingly simple to implement due to metatables. I was wondering if
-- there was a more natural way to deal with commands at the lua end. Of course it's
-- a bit slower but often more readable when mixed with lua code. It can also be handy
-- when generating documents from databases or when constructing large tables or so.
--
-- maybe optional checking against interface
-- currently no coroutine trickery
-- we could always use prtcatcodes (context.a_b_c) but then we loose protection
-- tflush needs checking ... sort of weird that it's not a table
-- __flushlines is an experiment and rather ugly so it will go away
--
-- tex.print == line with endlinechar appended

-- todo: context("%bold{total: }%s",total)
-- todo: context.documentvariable("title")

-- during the crited project we ran into the situation that luajittex was 10-20 times
-- slower that luatex ... after 3 days of testing and probing we finally figured out that
-- the the differences between the lua and luajit hashers can lead to quite a slowdown
-- in some cases.
