Re: [NTG-context] Minor bug in Lua or ConTeXt

Thanks Hans. Before Pablo spends too much effort on the wiki it's worth pointing out that this only happened because I was in-line documenting the Lua function that I had written and wanted to name the ConTeXT macro that would invoke it - so it's trivial for me to avoid this error. Perhaps the Wiki only needs to point out that if you get a Lua related error and the error log lists the entire contents of \startluacode ... \stopluacode then a possible source of the error is a \command somewhere in there?

ConTeXt ver: 2023.01.04 The following MWE won't compile because of the \dummycommand line even though it is a comment. Not sure whether it's a minor bug or an unavoidable aspect of allowing embedded Lua. \startluacode -- \dummycommand \stopluacode \starttext Hello \stoptext

a bang-head-against-the-wall case:

\let\dummycommand\relax

\startluacode -- \dummycommand \stopluacode \starttext Hello \stoptext

or:

\ifdefined\dummycommand \else \let\dummycommand\relax \fi

a document-on-the-wiki challenge for Pablo
