+The \ETEX\ command \type {\lastnodetype} returns the node codes as used in the
+engine. You can query the numbers at the \LUA\ end if you need the actual values.
+The parameter \type {\internalcodesmode} is no longer provided as compatibility

+to be incompatible with the \LUA\ end of the engine. The same is true for \type
