vmmerge

["Nick Trout" <nick@...>]

I've added a script to the Wiki which will merge Lua source code and the VM code
generated. Quite useful for anyone obsessed with optimisation! :-)

eg:

  a = {}
  b=a.x
  print(b)

produces (using a simple merge):

 a = {}
 	CREATETABLE	0
 	SETGLOBAL  	0	; a
 b=a.x
 	GETGLOBAL  	0	; a
 	GETDOTTED  	2	; x
 	SETGLOBAL  	1	; b
 print(b)
 	GETGLOBAL  	3	; print
 	GETGLOBAL  	1	; b
 	CALL       	0 0
 	END
It also generates HTML output, see http://lua.swiki.net/79
