Thanks for that one then;) Unfotuanetly isn't really possible, the whole 
thing is based on dll's which bind there functions on initialisation and 
its the script which manages everything from there, I could maybe keep a 
global stack c side so every call of the convert function it overwrites 
and restores the globals on exit, in fact this may be a lot simpler than 
trying to figure out the rather sparsely document lua_setfenv and 
accompanying code needed.
