[ANN] luatexts 0.1

[Alexander Gladysh <agladysh@...>]

Hi, list!

Announcing luatexts version 0.1 release (under MIT license).

https://github.com/agladysh/luatexts

The luatexts module handles serialization to a simple human-readable
binary-safe Lua-aware format.

It is much similar to my my luabins[1], only it uses text instead of
binary data, and does support UTF-8 strings natively as one of the
data formats. Native UTF-8 support is especially useful e.g. in
JavaScript, where you can not reliably calculate size of a string in
bytes.

This is an early release. Code is not recommended for production yet,
but early adopters are very welcome.

Any feedback welcome (but please read the README[2] first).

Alexander.
