You might want to just pass a table of the arguments, instead of all
of the arguments directly.

LuaFunction({"arg1", "arg2", "arg3", ....})

It's valid to leave the parentheses off when the only parameter is a
table, so you can also do this:

----
LuaFunction{"arg1", "arg2", "arg3", ....}

Then you'll get a table as your single parameter, and you can iterate
over that table to get all of the arguments. Unlike the parameter
list, a table isn't limited to 256 entries.
