`l3sys-query`: System queries for LaTeX using Lua

Release 2024-04-08

Overview

The l3sys-query script provides a method for TeX runs to obtain system information via shell escape to Lua. The facilities are more limited than the similar Java script texosquery, but since it uses Lua, l3sys-query can be used 'out of the box' with any install TeX system. The script is written taking account of TeX Live security requirement; it is therefore suitable for use with restricted shell escape, the standard setting when installing a TeX system.

The supported queries are

ls: Directory listing supporting a range of options
pwd: Obtaining details of the current working directory
