Package: luatex
Version: 0.11.2-1
Severity: normal

[ Severity: normal since I'm not entirely sure I'm not missing
something, but if I am not it should probably be raised ... ]

I'm trying the attached a.tex example, the first shown on the luatex
website. Compiling it with "luatex -fmt pdflatex a.tex" fails as
follows:

  $ luatex -fmt pdflatex a.tex 
  This is luaTeX, Version 3.141592-beta-0.11.2-2007092410 (Web2C 7.5.6)
  (a.tex
  LaTeX2e <2005/12/01>
  Babel <v3.8h> and hyphenation patterns for english, usenglishmax,
  dumylang, noh
  yphenation, italian, loaded.
  (/usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/base/article.cls
  Document Class: article 2005/09/16 v1.4f Standard LaTeX document class
  (/usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/base/size10.clo)) (a.aux)
  ! Undefined control sequence.
  l.3 \lua
          {a = 1.5 ; b = 1.8 ; c = a*b ; tex.print(c) ;}
  ?

Am I missing something or luatex is not working at all?

TIA,
Cheers.

The a.tex is missing, but I guess you took some old examples, please see
the manual in 
	/usr/share/doc/luatex/luatexref-t.pdf
The following code works quite well:
\directlua0{a = 1.5 ; b = 1.8 ; c = a*b ; tex.print(c) ;}

\directlua0{
   a = 1
   b = 2
   c = a*b
   tex.print(c)
}

\bye

No latex format, please, see my other email.

Yes, you are missing the right primitives.

Closing this bug
