luatex 0.70.1-1ubuntu1 (i386 binary) in ubuntu precise
LuaTeX uses Lua scripting both as an extension to the TeX
macro language and as an extension to the typesetting
engine itself. A (growing) number of TeX internals are
made available to the embedded lua interpreter.
.
LuaTeX uses code and interfaces from Aleph to improve the
typesetting of non-latin alphabet languages, instead of
the TeXXeT code present in the current releases of pdfTeX.
.
Unicode and OpenType font support are added progressively,
and regular pdfTeX development will continue in this
branch as well.
.
The multi-lingual extensions are coded and merged by Taco
Hoekwater. Swift progress in that area is made possible
by a joint grant from Colorado State University and TUG,
under the 'Oriental TeX' project.
.
This package only contains the barebone binary. If you are
searching for support file, formats etc install texlive-luatex.
