When you load a lua script into the interpreter, it is _always_ loaded as a 
function. Basically, any block of Lua code is a function, including the top 
level one. So, for instance, this script:

function foo()
    -- do something
end

a = 3
foo()


...consists of two functions: the function "foo", and the top level function. 
So yes, this will always work.
