Re: Adding local variables to lua functions, called from C.

I'm not sure what you mean here, but you can try using upvalues instead.
Consider this example

 do
   local a=10
   local b=20
   local c=30
   function f()
    print(a,b,c)
   end
 end

Then in C you can call lua_setupvalue on f to set a,b,c (or any one of
them individually). After that, call f. Try this:

 lua_getglobal(L,"f");
 lua_pushnumber(L,2004);
 lua_setupvalue(L,1,2);
 lua_call(L,0,0);
