+\startchapter[title={From \LUA\ 5.2 to 5.3}]
+
+When we started with \LUATEX\ we used \LUA\ 5.1 and moved to 5.2 when that became
+available. We didn't run into issues then because there were no fundamental
+changes that could not be dealt with. However, when \LUA\ 5.3 was announced in
+2015 we were not sure if we should make the move. The main reason was that we'd
+chosen \LUA\ because of its clean design which meant that we had only one number
+type: double. In 5.3 on the other hand, deep down a number can be either an
+integer or a floating point quantity.
+
+Internally \TEX\ is mostly (up to) 32-bit integers and when we go from \LUA\ to
+\TEX\ we round numbers. Nonetheless one can expect some benefits in using
+integers. Performance|-|wise we didn't expect much, and memory consumption would
+be the same too. So, the main question then was: can we get the same output and
+not run into trouble due to possible differences in serializing numbers; after
+all \TEX\ is about stability. The serialization aspect is for instance important
+when we compare quantities and|/|or use numbers in hashes.
+
+Apart from this change in number model, which comes with a few extra helpers,
+another extension in 5.3 was that bit|-|wise operations are now part of the
+language. The lpeg library is still not part of stock \LUA. There is some minimal
+\UTF8 support, but less than we provide in \LUATEX\ already. So, looking at these
+changes, we were not in a hurry to update. Also, it made sense to wait till this
+important number|-|related change was stable.
+
+But, a few years later, we still had it on our agenda to test, and after the
+\CONTEXT\ 2017 meeting we decided to give it a try; here are some observations. A
+quick test was just dropping in the new \LUA\ code and seeing if we could make a
+\CONTEXT\ format. Indeed that was no big deal but a test run failed because at
+some point a (for instance) \type {1} became a \type {1.0}. It turned out that
+serializing has some side effects. And with some ad hoc prints for tracing (in
+the \LUATEX\ source) I could figure out what went on. How numbers are seen can
+(to some extent) be deduced from the \type {string.format} function, which is in
+\LUA\ a combination of parsing, splitting and concatenation combined with piping
+to the \CCODE\ \type {sprintf} function. \footnote {Actually, at some point I
+decided to write my own formatter on top of \type {format} and I ended up with
+splitting as well. It's only now that I realize why this is working out so well
+(in terms of performance): simple format (single items) are passed more or less
+directly to \type {sprintf} and as \LUA\ itself is fast, due to some caching, the
+overhead is small compared to the built|-|in splitter method. And the \CONTEXT\
+formatter has many more options and is extensible.}
+
+\starttyping
+local a = 2 * (1/2) print(string.format("%s", a),math.type(x))
+local b = 2 * (1/2) print(string.format("%d", b),math.type(x))
+local c = 2 print(string.format("%d", c),math.type(x))
+local d = -2 print(string.format("%d", d),math.type(x))
+local e = 2 * (1/2) print(string.format("%i", e),math.type(x))
+local f = 2.1 print(string.format("%.0f",f),math.type(x))
+local g = 2.0 print(string.format("%.0f",g),math.type(x))
+local h = 2.1 print(string.format("%G", h),math.type(x))
+local i = 2.0 print(string.format("%G", i),math.type(x))
+local j = 2 print(string.format("%.0f",j),math.type(x))
+local k = -2 print(string.format("%.0f",k),math.type(x))
+\stoptyping
+
+This gives the following results:
+
+\starttabulate[|cBT|c|T|c|cT|]

+\BC b \NC 2 * (1/2)\NC d \NC 1 \NC float \NC \NR

+\BC j \NC 2 \NC .0f \NC 2 \NC integer \NC \NR
+\BC k \NC -2 \NC .0f \NC 2 \NC integer \NC \NR
+\stoptabulate
+
+This demonstrates that we have to be careful when we need these numbers
+represented as strings. In \CONTEXT\ the number of places where we had to check
+for that was not that large; in fact, only some hashing related to font sizes had
+to be done using explicit rounding.
+
+Another surprising side effect is the following. Instead of:
+
+\starttyping
+local n = 2^6
+\stoptyping
+
+we now need to use:
+
+\starttyping
+local n = 0x40
+\stoptyping
+
+or just:
+
+\starttyping
+local n = 64
+\stoptyping
+
+because we don't want this to be serialized to \type {64.0} which is due to the
+fact that a power results in a float. One can wonder if this makes sense when we
+apply it to an integer.
+
+At any rate, once we could process a file, two documents were chosen for a
+performance test. Some experiments with loops and casts had demonstrated that we
+could expect a small performance hit and indeed, this was the case. Processing
+the \LUATEX\ manual takes 10.7 seconds with 5.2 on my 5-year-old laptop and 11.6
+seconds with 5.3. If we consider that \CONTEXT\ spends 50\% of its time in \LUA,
+then we see a 20\% performance penalty. Processing the \METAFUN\ manual (which
+has lots of \METAPOST\ images) went from less than 20 seconds (\LUAJITTEX\ does
+it in 16 seconds) up to more than 27 seconds. So there we lose more than 50\% on
+the \LUA\ end. When we observed these kinds of differences, Luigi and I
+immediately got into debugging mode, partly out of curiosity, but also because
+consistent performance is important to~us.
+
+Because these numbers made no sense, we traced different sub-mechanisms and
+eventually it became clear that the reason for the speed penalty was that the
+core \typ {string.format} function was behaving quite badly in the \type {mingw}
+cross-compiled binary, as seen by this test:
+
+\starttyping
+local t = os.clock()
+for i=1,1000*1000 do
+ -- local a = string.format("%.3f",1.23)
+ -- local b = string.format("%i",123)
+ local c = string.format("%s",123)
+end
+print(os.clock()-t)
+\stoptyping
+
+\starttabulate[|c|c|c|c|c|]

+\BC c \NC 0.26 \NC 0.68 \NC 3.67 (0.29) \NC 0.66 \NC \NR
+\stoptabulate
+
+The 5.2 binaries perform the same but the 5.3 Lua binary greatly outperforms
+\LUATEX, and so we had to figure out why. After all, all this integer
+optimization could bring some gain! It took us a while to figure this out. The
+numbers in parentheses are the results after fixing this.
+
+Because font internals are specified in integers one would expect a gain
+in running:
+
+\starttyping
+mtxrun --script font --reload force
+\stoptyping
+
+and indeed that is the case. On my machine a scan results in 2561 registered
+fonts from 4906 read files and with 5.2 that takes 9.1 seconds while 5.3 needs a
+bit less: 8.6 seconds (with the bad format performance) and even less once that
+was fixed. For a test:
+
+\starttyping
+\setupbodyfont[modern] \tf \bf \it \bs
+\setupbodyfont[pagella] \tf \bf \it \bs
+\setupbodyfont[dejavu] \tf \bf \it \bs
+\setupbodyfont[termes] \tf \bf \it \bs
+\setupbodyfont[cambria] \tf \bf \it \bs
+\starttext \stoptext
+\stoptyping
+
+This code needs 30\% more runtime so the question is: how often do we call \type
+{string.format} there? A first run (when we wipe the font cache) needs some
+715,000 calls while successive runs need 115,000 calls so that slow down
+definitely comes from the bad handling of \type {string.format}. When we drop in
+a \LUA\ update or whatever other dependency we don't want this kind of impact. In
+fact, when one uses external libraries that are or can be compiled under the
+\TEX\ Live infrastructure and the impact would be such, it's bad advertising,
+especially when one considers the occasional complaint about \LUATEX\ being
+slower than other engines.
+
+The good news is that eventually Luigi was able to nail down this issue and we
+got a binary that performed well. It looks like \LUA\ 5.3.4 (cross|)|compiles
+badly with \GCC\ 5.3.0 and 6.3.0.
+
+So in the end caching the fonts takes:
+
+\starttabulate[||c|c|]
+\BC \BC caching \BC running \NC \NR
+\BC 5.2 stock \NC 8.3 \NC 1.2 \NC \NR
+\BC 5.3 bugged \NC 12.6 \NC 2.1 \NC \NR
+\BC 5.3 fixed \NC 6.3 \NC 1.0 \NC \NR
+\stoptabulate
+
+So indeed it looks like 5.3 is able to speed up \LUATEX\ a bit, given that one
+integrates it in the right way! Using a recent compiler is needed too, although
+one can wonder when a bad case will show up again. One can also wonder why such a
+slow down can mostly go unnoticed, because for sure \LUATEX\ is not the only
+compiled program.
+
+The next examples are some edge cases that show you need to be aware
+that
+\startitemize[n,text,nostopper]
+ \startitem an integer has its limits, \stopitem
+ \startitem that hexadecimal numbers are integers and \stopitem
+ \startitem that \LUA\ and \LUAJIT\ can be different in details. \stopitem

+
+So, to summarize the process. A quick test was relatively easy: move 5.3 into the
+code base, adapt a little bit of internals (there were some \LUATEX\ interfacing
+bits where explicit rounding was needed), run tests and eventually fix some
+issues related to the Makefile (compatibility) and \CCODE\ obscurities (the slow
+\type {sprintf}). Adapting \CONTEXT\ was also not much work, and the test suite
+uncovered some nasty side effects. For instance, the valid 5.2 solution:
+
+\starttyping
+local s = string.format("02X",u/1024)
+local s = string.char (u/1024)
+\stoptyping
+
+now has to become (both 5.2 and 5.3):
+
+\starttyping
+local s = string.format("02X",math.floor(u/1024))
+local s = string.char (math.floor(u/1024))
+\stoptyping
+
+or (both 5.2 and (emulated or real) 5.3):
+
+\starttyping
+local s = string.format("02X",bit32.rshift(u,10))
+local s = string.char (bit32.rshift(u,10))
+\stoptyping
+
+or (only 5.3):
+
+\starttyping
+local s = string.format("02X",u >> 10))
+local s = string.char (u >> 10)
+\stoptyping
+
+or (only 5.3):
+
+\starttyping
+local s = string.format("02X",u//1024)
+local s = string.char (u//1024)
+\stoptyping
+
+A conditional section like:
+
+\starttyping
+if LUAVERSION >= 5.3 then
+ local s = string.format("02X",u >> 10))
+ local s = string.char (u >> 10)
+else
+ local s = string.format("02X",bit32.rshift(u,10))
+ local s = string.char (bit32.rshift(u,10))
+end
+\stoptyping
+
+will fail because (of course) the 5.2 parser doesn't like that. In \CONTEXT\ we
+have some experimental solutions for that but that is beyond this summary.
+
+In the process a few \UTF\ helpers were added to the string library so that we
+have a common set for \LUAJIT\ and \LUA\ (the \type {utf8} library that was added
+to 5.3 is not that important for \LUATEX). For now we keep the \type {bit32}
+library on board. Of course we'll not mention all the details here.
+
+When we consider a gain in speed of 5-10\% with 5.3 that also means that the gain
+of \LUAJITTEX\ compared to 5.2 becomes less. For instance in font processing both
+engines now perform closer to the same.
+
+As I write this, we've just entered 2018 and after a few months of testing
+\LUATEX\ with \LUA\ 5.3 we're confident that we can move the code to the

+\startchapter[title={Executing \TEX}]
+
+Much of the \LUA\ code in \CONTEXT\ originates from experiments. When it survives
+in the source code it is probably used, waiting to be used or kept for
+educational purposes. The functionality that we describe here has already been
+present for a while in \CONTEXT, but improved a little starting with \LUATEX\
+1.08 due to an extra helper. The code shown here is generic and not used in
+\CONTEXT\ as such.
+
+Say that we have this code:
+
+\startbuffer
+for i=1,10000 do
+ tex.sprint("1")
+ tex.sprint("2")
+ for i=1,3 do
+ tex.sprint("3")
+ tex.sprint("4")
+ tex.sprint("5")
+ end
+ tex.sprint("\\space")
+end
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer
+
+% \ctxluabuffer
+
+When we call \type {\directlua} with this snippet we get some 30 pages of \type
+{12345345345}. The printed text is saved till the end of the \LUA\ call, so
+basically we pipe some 170.000 characters to \TEX\ that get interpreted as one
+paragraph.
+
+Now imagine this:
+
+\startbuffer
+\setbox0\hbox{xxxxxxxxxxx} \number\wd0
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer
+
+which gives \getbuffer. If we check the box in \LUA, with:
+
+\startbuffer
+tex.sprint(tex.box[0].width)
+tex.sprint("\\enspace")
+tex.sprint("\\setbox0\\hbox{!}")
+tex.sprint(tex.box[0].width)
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer
+
+the result is {\tttf \ctxluabuffer}, which is not what you would expect at first
+sight. However, if you consider that we just pipe to a \TEX\ buffer that gets
+parsed after the \LUA\ call, it will be clear that the reported width is the
+width that we started with. It will work all right if we say:
+
+\startbuffer
+tex.sprint(tex.box[0].width)
+tex.sprint("\\enspace")
+tex.sprint("\\setbox0\\hbox{!}")
+tex.sprint("\\directlua{tex.sprint(tex.box[0].width)}")
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer
+
+because now we get: {\tttf\ctxluabuffer}. It's not that complex to write some
+support code that makes this more convenient. This can work out quite well but
+there is a drawback. If we use this code:
+
+\startbuffer
+print(status.input_ptr)
+tex.sprint(tex.box[0].width)
+tex.sprint("\\enspace")
+tex.sprint("\\setbox0\\hbox{!}")
+tex.sprint("\\directlua{print(status.input_ptr)\
+ tex.sprint(tex.box[0].width)}")
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer
+
+Here we get \type {6} and \type {7} reported. You can imagine that when a lot of
+nested \type {\directlua} calls happen, we can get an overflow of the input level
+or (depending on what we do) the input stack size. Ideally we want to do a \LUA\
+call, temporarily go to \TEX, return to \LUA, etc.\ without needing to worry
+about nesting and possible crashes due to \LUA\ itself running into problems. One
+charming solution is to use so|-|called coroutines: independent \LUA\ threads
+that one can switch between --- you jump out from the current routine to another
+and from there back to the current one. However, when we use \type {\directlua}
+for that, we still have this nesting issue and what is worse, we keep nesting
+function calls too. This can be compared to:
+
+\starttyping
+\def\whatever{\ifdone\whatever\fi}
+\stoptyping
+
+where at some point \type {\ifdone} is false so we quit. But we keep nesting when
+the condition is met, so eventually we can end up with some nesting related
+overflow. The following:
+
+\starttyping
+\def\whatever{\ifdone\expandafter\whatever\fi}
+\stoptyping
+
+is less likely to overflow because there we have tail recursion which basically
+boils down to not nesting but continuing. Do we have something similar in
+\LUATEX\ for \LUA ? Yes, we do. We can register a function, for instance:
+
+\starttyping
+lua.get_functions_table()[1] = function() print("Hi there!") end
+\stoptyping
+
+and call that one with:
+
+\starttyping
+\luafunction 1
+\stoptyping
+
+This is a bit faster than calling a function like:
+
+\starttyping
+\directlua{HiThere()}
+\stoptyping
+
+which can also be achieved by
+
+\starttyping
+\directlua{print("Hi there!")}
+\stoptyping
+
+which sometimes can be more convenient. Anyway, a function call is what we can
+use for our purpose as it doesn't involve interpretation and effectively behaves
+like a tail call. The following snippet shows what we have in mind:
+
+\startbuffer[code]
+local stepper = nil
+local stack = { }
+local fid = 0xFFFFFF
+local goback = "\\luafunction" .. fid .. "\\relax"
+
+function tex.resume()
+ if coroutine.status(stepper) == "dead" then
+ stepper = table.remove(stack)
+ end
+ if stepper then
+ coroutine.resume(stepper)
+ end
+end
+
+lua.get_functions_table()[fid] = tex.resume
+
+function tex.yield()
+ tex.sprint(goback)
+ coroutine.yield()
+ texio.closeinput()
+end
+
+function tex.routine(f)
+ table.insert(stack,stepper)
+ stepper = coroutine.create(f)
+ tex.sprint(goback)
+end
+\stopbuffer
+
+\ctxluabuffer[code]
+
+\startbuffer[demo]
+tex.routine(function()
+ tex.sprint(tex.box[0].width)
+ tex.sprint("\\enspace")
+ tex.sprint("\\setbox0\\hbox{!}")
+ tex.yield()
+ tex.sprint(tex.box[0].width)
+end)
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer[demo]
+We start a routine, jump out to \TEX\ in the middle, come back when we're done
+and continue. This gives us: \ctxluabuffer [demo], which is what we expect.
+
+\setbox0\hbox{xxxxxxxxxxx}
+
+\ctxluabuffer[demo]
+
+This mechanism permits efficient (nested) loops like:
+
+\startbuffer[demo]
+tex.routine(function()
+ for i=1,10000 do
+ tex.sprint("1")
+ tex.yield()
+ tex.sprint("2")
+ tex.routine(function()
+ for i=1,3 do
+ tex.sprint("3")
+ tex.yield()
+ tex.sprint("4")
+ tex.yield()
+ tex.sprint("5")
+ end
+ end)
+ tex.sprint("\\space")
+ tex.yield()
+ end
+end)
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer[demo]
+
+We do create coroutines, go back and forwards between \LUA\ and \TEX, but avoid
+memory being filled up with printed content. If we flush paragraphs (instead of
+e.g.\ the space) then the main difference is that instead of a small delay due to
+the loop unfolding in a large set of prints and accumulated content, we now get a
+steady flushing and processing.
+
+However, we can still have an overflow of input buffers because we still nest
+them: the limitation at the \TEX\ end has moved to a limitation at the \LUA\ end.
+How come? Here is the code that we use:
+
+\typebuffer[code]
+
+The \type {routine} creates a coroutine, and \type {yield} gives control to \TEX.
+The \type {resume} is done at the \TEX\ end when we're finished there. In
+practice this works fine and when you permit enough nesting and levels in \TEX\
+then you will not easily overflow.
+
+When I picked up this side project and wondered how to get around it, it suddenly
+struck me that if we could just quit the current input level then nesting would
+not be a problem. Adding a simple helper to the engine made that possible (of
+course figuring it out took a while):
+
+\startbuffer[code]
+local stepper = nil
+local stack = { }
+local fid = 0xFFFFFF
+local goback = "\\luafunction" .. fid .. "\\relax"
+
+function tex.resume()
+ if coroutine.status(stepper) == "dead" then
+ stepper = table.remove(stack)
+ end
+ if stepper then
+ coroutine.resume(stepper)
+ end
+end
+
+lua.get_functions_table()[fid] = tex.resume
+
+if texio.closeinput then
+ function tex.yield()
+ tex.sprint(goback)
+ coroutine.yield()
+ texio.closeinput()
+ end
+else
+ function tex.yield()
+ tex.sprint(goback)
+ coroutine.yield()
+ end
+end
+
+function tex.routine(f)
+ table.insert(stack,stepper)
+ stepper = coroutine.create(f)
+ tex.sprint(goback)
+end
+\stopbuffer
+
+\ctxluabuffer[code]
+
+\typebuffer[code]
+
+The trick is in \type {texio.closeinput}, a recent helper and one that should be
+used with care. We assume that the user knows what she or he is doing. On an old
+laptop with a i7-3840 processor running \WINDOWS\ 10 the following snippet takes
+less than 0.35 seconds with \LUATEX\ and 0.26 seconds with \LUAJITTEX.
+
+\startbuffer[code]
+tex.routine(function()
+ for i=1,10000 do
+ tex.sprint("\\setbox0\\hpack{x}")
+ tex.yield()
+ tex.sprint(tex.box[0].width)
+ tex.routine(function()
+ for i=1,3 do
+ tex.sprint("\\setbox0\\hpack{xx}")
+ tex.yield()
+ tex.sprint(tex.box[0].width)
+ end
+ end)
+ end
+end)
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer[code]
+
+% \testfeatureonce {1} {\setbox0\hpack{\ctxluabuffer[code]}} \elapsedtime
+
+Say that we run the bad snippet:
+
+\startbuffer[code]
+for i=1,10000 do
+ tex.sprint("\\setbox0\\hpack{x}")
+ tex.sprint(tex.box[0].width)
+ for i=1,3 do
+ tex.sprint("\\setbox0\\hpack{xx}")
+ tex.sprint(tex.box[0].width)
+ end
+end
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer[code]
+
+% \testfeatureonce {1} {\setbox0\hpack{\ctxluabuffer[code]}} \elapsedtime
+
+This time we need 0.12 seconds in both engines. So what if we run this:
+
+\startbuffer[code]
+\dorecurse{10000}{%
+ \setbox0\hpack{x}
+ \number\wd0
+ \dorecurse{3}{%
+ \setbox0\hpack{xx}
+ \number\wd0
+ }%
+}
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer[code]
+
+% \testfeatureonce {1} {\setbox0\hpack{\getbuffer[code]}} \elapsedtime
+
+Pure \TEX\ needs 0.30 seconds for both engines but there we lose 0.13 seconds on
+the loop code. In the \LUA\ example where we yield, the loop code takes hardly
+any time. As we need only 0.05 seconds more it demonstrates that when we use the
+power of \LUA\ the performance hit of the switch is quite small: we yield 40.000
+times! In general, such differences are far exceeded by the overhead: the time
+needed to typeset the content (which \type {\hpack} doesn't do), breaking
+paragraphs into lines, constructing pages and other overhead involved in the run.
+In \CONTEXT\ we use a slightly different variant which has 0.30 seconds more
+overhead, but that is probably true for all \LUA\ usage in \CONTEXT, but again,
+it disappears in other runtime.
+
+Here is another example:
+
+\startbuffer[code]
+\def\TestWord#1%
+ {\directlua{
+ tex.routine(function()
+ tex.sprint("\\setbox0\\hbox{\\tttf #1}")
+ tex.yield()
+ tex.sprint(math.round(100 * tex.box[0].width/tex.hsize))
+ tex.sprint(" percent of the hsize: ")
+ tex.sprint("\\box0")
+ end)
+ }}
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer[code] \getbuffer[code]
+
+\startbuffer
+The width of next word is \TestWord {inline}!
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer \getbuffer
+
+Now, in order to stay realistic, this macro can also be defined as:
+
+\startbuffer[code]
+\def\TestWord#1%
+ {\setbox0\hbox{\tttf #1}%
+ \directlua{
+ tex.sprint(math.round(100 * tex.box[0].width/tex.hsize))
+ } %
+ percent of the hsize: \box0\relax}
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer[code]
+
+We get the same result: \quotation {\getbuffer}.
+
+We have been using a \LUA|-|\TEX\ mix for over a decade now in \CONTEXT, and have
+never really needed this mixed model. There are a few places where we could
+(have) benefitted from it and we might use it in a few places, but so far we have
+done fine without it. In fact, in most cases typesetting can be done fine at the
+\TEX\ end. It's all a matter of imagination.

+\startchapter[title={More (new) expansion trickery}]
+
+Contrary to what one might expect when looking at macro definitions, \TEX\ is
+pretty efficient. Occasionally I wonder if some extra built in functionality
+could help me write better code but when you program with a bit care there is
+often not much to gain in terms of tokens and performance. \footnote {The long
+trip to the yearly Bacho\TeX\ meeting is always a good opportunity to ponder
+\TEX\ and its features. The new functionality discussed here is a side effect of
+the most recent trip.} Also, some possible extensions probably only would be
+applied a few times which makes them low priority. When you look at the
+extensions brought by \ETEX\ the number is not that large, and \LUATEX\ only
+added a few that deal with the language, for instance \tex {expanded} which is
+like an \tex {edef} without the defining a macro and acts on a token list wrapped
+in (normally) curly braces. Just as reference we mention some of the expansion
+related helpers.

+\NC \NR
+\stoptabulate
+
+Here I will present two other extensions in \LUATEX\ that can come in handy, and
+they are there simply because their effect can hardly be realized otherwise
+(never say never in \TEX). One has to do with immediately applying a definition,
+the other with user defined conditions. The first one relates directly to
+expansion, the second one concerns conditions and relates more to parsing
+branches which on purpose avoids expansion.
+
+For the first one I use some silly examples. I must admit that although I can
+envision useful application, I really need to go over the large amount of
+\CONTEXT\ source code to really find a place where it is making things better.
+Take the following definitions:
+
+\startbuffer
+\newcount\NumberOfCalls
+
+\def\TestMe{\advance\NumberOfCalls1 }
+
+\edef\Tested{\TestMe foo:\the\NumberOfCalls}
+\edef\Tested{\TestMe foo:\the\NumberOfCalls}
+\edef\Tested{\TestMe foo:\the\NumberOfCalls}
+
+\meaning\Tested
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer
+
+The result is a macro \tex {Tested} that not only has the unexpanded incrementing
+code in its body but also hasn't done any advancing:
+
+\getbuffer
+
+Of course when you're typesetting something, this kind of expansion normally is
+not needed. Instead of the above definition we can define \tex {TestMe} in a way
+that expands the assignment immediately. You need of course to be aware of
+preventing look ahead interference by using a space or \tex {relax} (often an
+expression works better as it doesn't leave an \tex {relax}).
+
+\startbuffer
+\def\TestMe{\immediateassignment\advance\NumberOfCalls1 }
+
+\edef\Tested{\TestMe bar:\the\NumberOfCalls}
+\edef\Tested{\TestMe bar:\the\NumberOfCalls}
+\edef\Tested{\TestMe bar:\the\NumberOfCalls}
+
+\meaning\Tested
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer
+
+This time the counter gets updated and we don't see interference in the resulting
+\tex {Tested} macro:
+
+\getbuffer
+
+Here is a somewhat silly example of an expanded comparison of two \quote
+{strings}:
+
+\startbuffer
+\def\expandeddoifelse#1#2#3#4%
+ {\immediateassignment\edef\tempa{#1}%
+ \immediateassignment\edef\tempb{#2}%
+ \ifx\tempa\tempb
+ \immediateassignment\def\next{#3}%
+ \else
+ \immediateassignment\def\next{#4}%
+ \fi
+ \next}
+
+\edef\Tested
+ {(\expandeddoifelse{abc}{def}{yes}{nop}/%
+ \expandeddoifelse{abc}{abc}{yes}{nop})}
+
+\meaning\Tested
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer
+
+I don't remember many cases where I needed such an expanded comparison. We have a
+variant in \CONTEXT\ that uses \LUA\ but that one is not really used in the core.
+Anyway, the above code gives:
+
+\getbuffer
+
+You can do the same assignments as in preambles of \tex {halign} and after \tex
+{accent} which means that assignments to box registers are blocked (boxing
+involves grouping and delayed assignments and so). The error you will get when
+you use a non||assignment command refers to a prefix, because internally such
+commands are called prefixed commands. Leading spaces and \tex {relax} are
+ignored.
+
+In addition to this one|-|time immediate assignment a pseudo token list variant
+is provided, so the above could be rewritten to:
+
+\starttyping
+\def\expandeddoifelse#1#2#3#4%
+ {\immediateassigned {
+ \edef\tempa{#1}
+ \edef\tempb{#2}
+ }%
+ \ifx\tempa\tempb
+ \immediateassignment\def\next{#3}%
+ \else
+ \immediateassignment\def\next{#4}%
+ \fi
+ \next}
+\stoptyping
+
+While \tex {expanded} first builds a token lists that then gets used, the \tex
+{immediateassigned} primitive just walls over the list delimited by curly braces.
+
+A next extension concerns conditions. If you have done a bit of extensive \TEX\
+programming you know that nested conditions need to be properly constructed in
+for instance macro bodies. This is because (for good reason) \TEX\ goes into a
+fast scanning mode when there is a match and it has to skip the \tex {else} upto
+\tex {fi} branch. In order to do that properly a nested \tex {if} in there needs
+to have a matching \tex {fi}.
+
+In practice this is no real problem and careful coding will never give a problem
+here: you can either hide nested code in a macro or somehow jump over nested
+conditions if really needed. Actually you only need to care when you pickup a
+token inside the branch because likely you don't want to pick up for instance a
+\tex {fi} but something that comes after it. Say that we have a sane conditional
+setup like this:
+
+\starttyping
+\newif\iffoo \foofalse
+\newif\ifbar \bartrue
+
+\ifoo
+ \ifbar \else \fi
+\else
+ \ifbar \else \fi
+\fi
+\stoptyping
+
+Here the \tex {iffoo} and \tex {ifbar} need to be equivalent to \tex {iftrue} or
+\tex {iffalse} in order to succeed well and that is what for instance \tex
+{footrue} and \tex {foofalse} will do: change the meaning of \tex {iffoo}.
+
+But imagine that you want something more complex. You want for instance to let
+\tex {ifbar} do some calculations. In that case you want it to behave a bit like
+what a so called \type {vardef} in \METAPOST\ does: the end result is what
+matters. Now, because \TEX\ macros often are a complex mix of expandable and
+non|-|expandable this is not that trivial. One solution is a dedicated definer,
+say \tex {cdef} for defining a macro with conditional properties. I actually
+implemented such a definer a few years ago but left it so long in a folder with
+ideas that I only found it back after I had come up with another solution. It was
+probably proof that it was not that good an idea.
+
+The solution implemented in \LUATEX\ is just a special case of a test: \tex
+{ifcondition}. When looking at the next example, keep in mind that from the
+perspective of \TEX's scanner it only needs to know if something is a token that
+does some test and has a matching \tex {fi}. For that purpose you can consider
+\tex {ifcondition} to be \tex {iftrue}. When \TEX\ actually wants to do a test,
+which is the case in the true branch, then it will simply ignore this \tex
+{ifcondition} primitive and expands what comes after it (which is \TEX's natural
+behaviour). Effectively \tex {ifcondition} has no meaning except from when it has
+to be skipped, in which case it's a token flagged as \tex {if} kind of command.
+
+\starttyping
+\unexpanded\def\something#1#2%
+ {\edef\tempa{#1}%
+ \edef\tempb{#2}
+ \ifx\tempa\tempb}
+
+\ifcondition\something{a}{b}%
+ \ifcondition\something{a}{a}%
+ true 1
+ \else
+ false 1
+ \fi
+\else
+ \ifcondition\something{a}{a}%
+ true 2
+ \else
+ false 2
+ \fi
+\fi
+\stoptyping
+
+Wrapped in a macro you can actually make this fully expandable when you use the
+previously mentioned immediate assignment. Here is another example:
+
+\starttyping
+\unexpanded\def\onoddpage
+ {\ifodd\count0 }
+
+\ifcondition\onoddpage odd \else even \fi page
+\stoptyping
+
+The previously defined comparison macro can now be rewritten as:
+
+\starttyping
+\def\equaltokens#1#2%
+ {\immediateassignment\edef\tempa{#1}%
+ \immediateassignment\edef\tempb{#2}%
+ \ifx\tempa\tempb}
+
+\def\expandeddoifelse#1#2#3#4%
+ {\ifcondition\equaltokens{#1}{#2}%
+ \immediateassignment\def\next{#3}%
+ \else
+ \immediateassignment\def\next{#4}%
+ \fi
+ \next}
+\stoptyping
+
+When used this way it will of course also work without the \tex {ifcondition} but
+when used nested it can be like this. This last example also demonstrates that
+this feature probably only makes sense in more complicated cases where more work
+is done in the \tex {onoddpage} or \tex {equaltokens} macro. And again, I am not
+sure if for instance in \CONTEXT\ I have a real use for it because there are only
+a few cases where nesting like this could benefit. I did some tests with a low
+level macro where it made the code look nicer. It was actually a bit faster but
+most core macros are not called that often. Although the overhead of this feature
+can be neglected, performance should not be the reason for using it: in \CONTEXT\
+for instance one can often only measure such possible speed|-|ups on macros that
+are called tens or hundreds of thousands of times and that seldom happens in a
+real run end even then a change from say 0.827 seconds to 0.815 seconds for 10K
+calls of a complex case is just noise as the opposite can also happen.
+
+Although not strictly necessary these extensions might make some code look better
+so that is why they officially will be available in the 1.09 release of \LUATEX\
+in fall 2018. It might eventually inspire me to go over some code and see where I
+can improve the look and feel.
+
+The last few years I have implemented some more ideas as local experiments, for

+\startchapter[title={The state of \PDF}]
+
+\startsection[title={Introduction}]
+
+Below I will spend some words on the state of \PDF\ in \CONTEXT\ mid 2018. These
+are just some reflections, not an in|-|depth discussion of the state of affairs. I
+sometimes feel the need to wrap up.
+
+\stopsection
+
+\startsection[title={Media}]
+
+For over two decades \CONTEXT\ has supported fancy \PDF\ features like movies and
+sound. In fact, as happens more, the flexibility of \TEX\ made it possible to
+support such features right after they became available, often even before other
+applications supported them.
+
+The first approach to support such media clips was relatively easy. In \PDF\ one
+has the text flow, resulting from the typesetting process, either or not enhanced
+with images that are referred to from the flow. In that respect images are an
+integral part of \PDF. On a separate layer there can be annotations. There are
+many kinds and they are originally a sort of extension mechanism that permits
+plugins to add features to a document. Examples of this are hyperlinks and the
+already mentioned media clips. Video was supported by the quicktime movie plugin.
+As far as I know in the meantime that plugin has been dropped as official part of
+Acrobat but one can still plug it in.
+
+Later an extra mechanism was introduced, tagged renditions. It separates the
+views from the media and was more complex. When I first played with it, quite
+some media were possible, and I made a demo that could handle mov, mp3, smi and
+swf files. But last time I checked none of these really worked, apart from the
+swf file. One gets pop|-|ups for missing viewers and a look at the reader
+preferences makes one pessimistic about future support anyway. But one should be
+able to set up a list of useable players with this mechanism (although only an
+Adobe one seems to be okay so we're back to where we started).
+
+At some point support for u3d was added. Interesting is that there is quite some
+infrastructure described in the \PDF\ standard. Also something called rich media
+was introduced and that should replace the former video and audio annotations
+(definitely in \PDF\ version 2) and probably some day the renditions will no
+longer be supported either. Open source \PDF\ viewers just stuck to supporting
+text and static images.
+
+Now, do these rich media work well? Hardly. The standard leaves it to the viewer
+and provides ways to define viewers (although it's unclear to me how that works
+out in practice.) Basically in \PDF\ version 2 there is no native support for
+simple straightforward video. One has to construct a complex set of related
+annotations.
+
+One can give arguments (like security risks) for not supporting all these fancy
+features but then why make rich media part of the specification at all? Browsers
+beat \PDF\ viewers in showing media and as browsers can operate in kiosk mode I
+suppose that it's not that hard to delegate showing whatever you want in an
+embedded window in the \PDF\ viewer. Or why not simply support videolan out of
+the box. All we need is the ability to view movies and control them (play, pause,
+stop, rewind, etc). Where \HTML\ evolved towards easier media support, \PDF\
+evolved to more obscurity.
+
+So, how bad is it really? There are \PDF\ files around that have video! Indeed,
+but the way they're supposed to do this is as follows: currently one actually has
+to embed a shockwave video player (a user interface around something built|-|in)
+and let that player show for instance an mp4 movie. However, support for
+shockwave (flash) will be dropped in 2020 and that renders documents that use it
+obsolete. This even makes one wonder about \JAVASCRIPT\ and widgets like form
+fields, also a rather moving and somewhat unstable target. (I must have a
+document being a calculator somewhere made in the previous century, in the early
+days of \PDF.)
+
+I think that the plugin model failed already rather early in the \PDF\ history if
+only because it made no sense to develop them when in a next version of Acrobat
+the functionality was copied in the core. In a similar fashion \JAVASCRIPT\
+support seems to have stalled.
+
+Unfortunately the open source viewers never catched on with media, forms and
+\JAVASCRIPT\ and therefore there has been no momentum created to keep things
+supported. It all makes efforts spent on supporting this kind of \PDF\ features a
+waste of time. It also makes one careful in using them: it only works on the
+short term.
+
+Get me right, I'm not talking of complex media like 3d or animations but of
+straightforward video support. I understand that the rich media framework tries
+to cover complex cases but it's simple cases that carry the format. On the other
+hand, one can wonder why the \PDF\ format makes it possible to specify behaviour
+that in practice depends on \JAVASCRIPT\ and therefore could as well have been
+delegated to \JAVASCRIPT\ as well. It would probably have been much cleaner.
+\footnote {It looks like mu\PDF\ in 2018 got some support related to widgets aka
+fields but alas not for layers which would be quite useful.}
+
+The \PDF\ version 2 specification mentions \type {3D}, \type {Video} and \type
+{Audio} as primary content types so maybe future viewers will support video out
+of the box. Who knows. We try to keep up in \CONTEXT\ because it's often not that
+complex to support \PDF\ features but with hardly any possibility to test them,
+they have a low priority. And with Acrobat moving to the cloud and thereby
+creating a more of less lifelong dependency on remote resources it doesn't become
+much interesting to explore those routes either.
+
+\stopsection
+
+\startsection[title={Accessibility}]
+
+A popular \PDF\ related topic is accessibility. One aspect of that is tagged
+\PDF. This substandard is in my opinion not something that deserves a price for
+beauty. I know that there are \CONTEXT\ users who need to be compliant but I
+always wonder what a publisher really does with such a file. It's a bit like
+requiring \XML\ as source but at the same time sacrificing really rich encoded
+and sources for tweaks that suite the current limitations of for instance browsers,
+tool|-|chains and competence. We've seen it happen.
+
+Support for tagged \PDF\ has been available in \CONTEXT\ already for a while but
+as far as I know only Acrobat professional can do something with it. The reason
+for tagging is that a document is then useable for (for instance) visually
+impaired users, but aren't they better served with a proper complete and very
+structured source in some format that tools suitable for it can use? How many
+publishers distribute \PDF\ files while they can still make money on prints? How
+many are really interested in distributing enriched content that then can be
+reused somehow? And how many are willing to invest in tools instead of waiting
+for it to happen for free? It's a bit cheap trick to just expect authors (and
+their in the case of \TEX\ free tools) to suit a publishers needs. Anyway, just
+as with advanced interactive documents or forms, I wonder if it will catch on. At
+least no publisher ever asked us and by the time they might do the competition of
+web based dissemination could have driven \PDF\ to the background. But, in
+\CONTEXT\ we will keep supporting such features anyway, if only because it's
+quite doable. But \unknown\ it's user demand that drives development, not the
+market, which means that the motivation for implementing such features depends on
+user input as well as challenging aspects that make it somewhat fun to spend time
+on them.
+
+\stopsection
+
+\startsection[title={Quality assurance}]
+
+Another aspect popping up occasionally is validation. I'm not entirely sure what
+drives that but delegating a problem can be one reason. Often we see publishers
+and printers use old versions of \PDF\ related tools. Also, some workflows are
+kind of ancient anyway and are more driven by \POSTSCRIPT\ history than \PDF\
+possibilities. I sometimes get the impression that it takes at least a decade for
+these things to catch on, and by that time it doesn't matter any more that \TEX\
+and friends were at the front: their users are harassed by what the market
+demands by then.
+
+Support for several standards related to validation is already part of \CONTEXT\
+for quite a while. For instance the bump from \PDF\ 1.7 to 2.0 was hardly worth
+noticing, simply because there are not that many fundamental changes. Adapting
+\LUATEX\ was trivial (and actually not really needed), and macro packages can
+provide what is needed without much problems. So, yes, we can support it without
+much hassle. Personally I never ran into a case where validation was really
+needed. The danger of validation is that it can give a false impression of
+quality. And as with everything quality control created a market. As with other
+features it is users who drive the availability of support for this. After all,
+they are the ones testing it and figuring out the often fuzzy specifications.
+These are things that one can always look at in retrospect (like: it has to be
+done this or that way) while in practice in order to be an early adopter one has
+to gamble a bit and see where it fails or succeeds. Fortunately it's relatively
+easy to adapt macro packages and \CONTEXT\ users are willing to update so it's
+not really an issue.
+
+Putting a stamp of approval on a \PDF\ cannot hide the inconsistencies between
+for instance vector graphics produced by a third party. They also don't expose
+inconsistent use of color and fonts. The page streams produced by \LUATEX\ are
+simple and clean enough to not give problems with validation. The problem lays
+more with resources coming from elsewhere. When you're phoned by a printing house
+about an issue with \RGB\ images in a file where there is no sign of \RGB\ being
+used but where a validator reports an issue, you're lucky when an experienced
+printer dating back decades then replies that he already had that impression and
+will contact the origin. There is no easy way out of this but educating users
+(authors) is an option. However, they are often dependent on the publishers and
+departments that deal with these and those tend to come with directives that the
+authors cannot really argue with (or about).
+
+\stopsection
+
+\startsection[title={Interactivity}]
+
+This is an area where \TEX\ (an therefore also \CONTEXT) always had an edge,
+There is a lot possible and in principle all that \PDF\ provides can be
+supported. But the more fancy one goes, the more one depends on Acrobat.
+Interactivity in \PDF\ evolved stepwise and is mostly market driven. As a result
+it is (or was) not always consistent. This is partly due to the fact that we have
+a chicken|-|egg issue: you need typesetting machinery, viewer as well as a
+standard.
+
+The regular hyperlinks, page or named driven are normally supported by viewers.
+Some redefined named destinations (like going to a next page, or going back in a
+chain of followed links) not always. Launching applications, as it also relates
+to security, can be qualified as an unreliable mechanism. More advanced linking,
+for instance using \JAVASCRIPT\ is hardly supported. In that respect \PDF\
+viewers lag way behind \HTML\ browsers. I understand that there can be security
+risks involved. It's interesting to see that in Acrobat one can mess with
+internals of files which makes the \API\ large and complex, but if we stick to
+the useful core, the amount of interfacing needed is quite small. Lack of support
+in open source viewers (we're talking of about two decades now) made me loose
+interest in these features but they are and will be supported in \CONTEXT. We'll
+see if and when viewers catch up.
+
+Comments and attachments are also part of interactivity and of course we
+supported them right from the start. Some free viewers also support them by now.
+Personally I never use comments but they can be handy for popping up information
+or embedding snippets or (structured) sources (like \MATHML\ or bibliographic
+data). In \CONTEXT\ we can even support \PDF\ inclusion with (a reasonable)
+subset of these so called annotations. As the \PDF\ standard no longer evolves
+much we can expect all these features to become stable.
+
+\stopsection
+
+\startsection[title={Summary}]
+
+We have always supported the fancy \PDF\ features and we will continue doing so
+in \CONTEXT . However, many of them depends on what viewers support, and after
+decades of \PDF\ that is still kind of disappointing, which is not that
+motivating. We'll see what happens.
