\section{The main control loop}
In \LUATEX's main loop, almost all input characters that are to be typeset are
converted into \type {glyph} node records with subtype \quote {character}, but
there are a few exceptions.
-First, the \type {\accent} primitives creates nodes with subtype \quote {glyph}
-instead of \quote {character}: one for the actual accent and one for the
-accentee. The primary reason for this is that \type {\accent} in \TEX82 is
-explicitly dependent on the current font encoding, so it would not make much
-sense to attach a new meaning to the primitive's name, as that would invalidate
-many old documents and macro packages. \footnote {Of course, modern packages will
-not use the \type {\accent} primitive at all but try to map directly on composed
-characters.} A secondary reason is that in \TEX82, \type {\accent} prohibits
-hyphenation of the current word. Since in \LUATEX\ hyphenation only takes place
-on \quote {character} nodes, it is possible to achieve the same effect.
-
-This change of meaning did happen with \type {\char}, that now generates \quote
-{glyph} nodes with a character subtype. In traditional \TEX\ there was a strong
-relationship between the 8|-|bit input encoding, hyphenation and glyphs taken
-from a font. In \LUATEX\ we have \UTF\ input, and in most cases this maps
-directly to a character in a font, apart from glyph replacement in the font
-engine. If you want to access arbitrary glyphs in a font directly you can always
-use \LUA\ to do so, because fonts are available as \LUA\ table.
-
-Second, all the results of processing in math mode eventually become nodes with
-\quote {glyph} subtypes.
-
-Third, the \ALEPH|-|derived commands \type {\leftghost} and \type {\rightghost}
-create nodes of a third subtype: \quote {ghost}. These nodes are ignored
-completely by all further processing until the stage where inter|-|glyph kerning
-is added.
-
-Fourth, automatic discretionaries are handled differently. \TEX82 inserts an
-empty discretionary after sensing an input character that matches the \type
-{\hyphenchar} in the current font. This test is wrong in our opinion: whether or
-not hyphenation takes place should not depend on the current font, it is a
-language property. \footnote {When \TEX\ showed up we didn't have \UNICODE\ yet
-and being limited to eight bits meant that one sometimes had to compromise
-between supporting character input, glyph rendering, hyphenation.}
-
-In \LUATEX, it works like this: if \LUATEX\ senses a string of input characters
-that matches the value of the new integer parameter \type {\exhyphenchar}, it will
-insert an explicit discretionary after that series of nodes. Initex sets the \type
-{\exhyphenchar=`\-}. Incidentally, this is a global parameter instead of a
-language-specific one because it may be useful to change the value depending on
-the document structure instead of the text language.
-
-The insertion of discretionaries after a sequence of explicit hyphens happens at
-the same time as the other hyphenation processing, {\it not\/} inside the main
-control loop.
-
-The only use \LUATEX\ has for \type {\hyphenchar} is at the check whether a word
-should be considered for hyphenation at all. If the \type {\hyphenchar} of the
-font attached to the first character node in a word is negative, then hyphenation
-of that word is abandoned immediately. This behaviour is added for backward
-compatibility only, and the use of \type {\hyphenchar=-1} as a means of
-preventing hyphenation should not be used in new \LUATEX\ documents.
-
-Fifth, \type {\setlanguage} no longer creates whatsits. The meaning of \type
-{\setlanguage} is changed so that it is now an integer parameter like all others.
-That integer parameter is used in \type {\glyph_node} creation to add language
-information to the glyph nodes. In conjunction, the \type {\language} primitive is
-extended so that it always also updates the value of \type {\setlanguage}.
-
-Sixth, the \type {\noboundary} command (that prohibits word boundary processing
-where that would normally take place) now does create nodes. These nodes are
-needed because the exact place of the \type {\noboundary} command in the input
-stream has to be retained until after the ligature and font processing stages.
-
-Finally, there is no longer a \type {main_loop} label in the code. Remember that
-\TEX82 did quite a lot of processing while adding \type {char_nodes} to the
-horizontal list? For speed reasons, it handled that processing code outside of
-the \quote {main control} loop, and only the first character of any \quote {word}
-was handled by that \quote {main control} loop. In \LUATEX, there is no longer a
-need for that (all hard work is done later), and the (now very small) bits of
-character|-|handling code have been moved back inline. When \type
-{\tracingcommands} is on, this is visible because the full word is reported,
-instead of just the initial character.
