My biggest problem is understanding some of the Lua code at all, lol. Lua is
a wonderful scripting language, but I can tell that the parser/lexer was
written while burning some of that ole midnight oil. Some of the code is
just downright sloppy (no offense to the guys who wrote it, I don't know if
I could write it).
