longdesc The package preprocesses input files to a Lua(La)TeX run, on
longdesc the fly. The user defines Lua regular expressions to search for
longdesc patterns and modify input lines (or entire paragraphs)
longdesc accordingly, before TeX reads the material. In this way,
longdesc documents may be prepared in a non-TeX language (e.g., some
longdesc lightweight markup language) and turned into 'proper' TeX for
longdesc processing. The source of the documentation is typed in such a
longdesc lightweight language and is thus easily readable in a text
longdesc editor (the PDF file is also available, of course); the
longdesc transformation to TeX syntax via Interpreter's functions is
longdesc explained in the documentation itself. Interpreter is
longdesc implemented using the author's gates (lua version), and works
longdesc for plain TeX and LaTeX, but not ConTeXt.
