It's usable, although it has problems with indenting multi-line
statements and anonymous functions. My guess is that the latter
problem would probably be easy to fix. The former looks harder to fix,
because lua does not have a statement separator like C. Oh well. At
least I have an excuse to learn elisp now.

programmers edit their inodes by hand with magnets. :-)
