This is fine. If lua_dostring works for you, good. But if you are interested
in catching syntax or execution errors in the string, then luaL_loadbuffer
is your friend: call luaL_loadbuffer with the string and check the return
code. If it's not zero, then there's an error message on the of the stack.
If it's zero, there's a function on the top ready to be called.
