  This is just an auxiliary function used only to improve error report. 
You could use lua_dofile.

  There is no comments because we though they are very straightforward. I 
mean IUP and Lua initialization can be done in any order, EXCEPT IupLua 
initialization that must be after Lua and IUP initialization. The 
additional controls follows the same rules, it must be initialized after 
IUP, so there is one initialization after IupOpen and one after 
iuplua_open. That's it.

  But you are right, there is no C example for this as there are for the 
other examples. I just added one for Lua 3 and one for Lua 5. You can 
download them from the online pages.
