I can do this from interactive lua and it seems to work, but when I
use it in
a lua program it does not work..
I am reading through a file that has variable length records, records
are separated
with a line containing only the "&". The last line in the file has "&&".
repeat
aline = read.io()
if aline == "&" then
count = count + 1
end
until aline == "&&"
Neither "&" or "&&" are ever detected.
I have checked the file... & and && are the only thing in the line.
I also have ">" .. aline .. "<" printed and see >&<
I don't get it... it should be straight forward.
