errr thanks! only $795.00! 

the best i have found for parsing real numbers is this:

digit           [0-9]

integer         {digit}+

exponant        [eE][+-]?{integer}

real            {integer}("."{integer})?{exponant}?


but i still don't know how to use it with strfind()

Learning Lua is turning into a bit of a nightmarge,
i spend all day searching the internet and come back empty handed every time

luabook1.pdf is a lot better than the official docs,
but there are still things i need to know to get me up and running...

is there any way to make a Lua variable reference another variable?
e.g.

a = 0;
b = 0;
t = { a, b }   <- what i really mean to do is pass the address of the var
and not the value!
t[0] = 10
t[1] = 20
print( a, b )

i would like the output to be:  10 20
