\section{About}

This package aids debugging your \TeX\ and \LaTeX\ document by drawing rectangles around boxes and rules where glue is inserted. Other items are marked as well: kerns, hyphenation points and penalties.

\section{How to use}

When you load the package \texttt{lua-visual-debug} in your \LuaLaTeX\ document (or use \verb|\input lua-visual-debug.sty| in plain \TeX), \LuaTeX\ will highlight boxes, penalties, glues and kerns in the PDF. This package requires you to process the document with \LuaTeX\ (plain and \LaTeX formats).

\begin{enumerate}
	\item A vertical glue. Beginning and end are marked with a small tick. At the mark 1, two vertical glues are connected.
\item A horizontal glue.
\item A negative kern. Positive kerns are yellow.
\item A possible hyphenation point.
\item Horizontal and vertical boxes are drawn with a border.
\item Penalties are marked with a square. A penalty of 10,000 is marked with a blank square, a penalty less than 10,000 is filled with a gray square (that will improve in the future, currently it is grayness of penalty / 10000).
\end{enumerate}

A strut box (zero width box) is marked with a red rule:
