Ok... here is what I'm trying to do:

local anArray = { 1, 2, 3 }
local anotherArray = { 1, 2, 3 }
print( tostring( anArray == anotherArray ) )

This returns false. For my purpose, I would like it to return true as 
equality is defined by two arrays having the same content, not the same 
address.

Further more, consider a table with custom objects which may define 
their own notion of equality:

local aKey = LUObject.new()
local aValue = LUObject.new()
local aTable = { aKey = aValue }

aTable.aKey

How do I get 'aTable' to invoke 'aKey' equality methods to return the 
proper 'aValue'?

TIA :)

Cheers
