l3sys-query

[davidcarlisle]

This is a request that the new l3sys-query texlua script (for listing files in directories) is allowed in restricted shell escape
so here most likely:

miktex/Admin/Config/miktex-config.ini.in

Line 46 in ccb8ac9

${MIKTEX_CONFIG_VALUE_ALLOWEDSHELLCOMMANDS} = texosquery-jre8

The file is designed to be at least as restrictive as texlive's p setting for openin_any, it never lists any paths above the current directory or "dot files" etc It is now allowed in texlive's restricted list.

If you have any concerns or requests for clarification please contact the latex project either by email or via githib,
https://github.com/latex3/latex2e/blob/develop/required/tools/l3sys-query.dtx

thanks,

David

A test file that runs without --shell-escape in texlive and lists all the tex files in the current directory

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{l3sys-query}

\begin{document}

\QueryFiles{*.tex}{\texttt{#1}\par}

\end{document}
