Hi,
In https://latexref.xyz/_005copenin-_0026-_005copenout.html
it is written:
> Open a file for reading material, or for writing it. The number must be
> between 0 and 15, as in \openin3 (in LuaLaTeX number can be between 0
> and 255).
David Carlisle pointed out this 0 and 255 range for LuaTeX is
incorrect, and gave a test program.
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\immediate\openout100
\immediate\openout200
\end{document}
See conversation around
https://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/59594255#59594255
To quote David Carlisle, "0-127 is the range".
Regards, Faheem Mitha
