texlive-luacode 2025.2

Helper for executing Lua code from within TeX

Executing Lua code from within TeX with directlua can sometimes be tricky: there is no easy way to use the percent character, counting backslashes may be hard, and Lua comments don't work the way you expect. The package provides the \luaexec command and the luacode environments to help with these problems.
