I'm curious about what you think of the solution provided in the 2002
thread here:
http://lua-users.org/lists/lua-l/2002-06/msg00067.html
I was just about to suggest the same thing myself, and then discovered
it had already been suggested:
static int os_exit (lua_State *L) {
if (L)
exit(luaL_optint(L, 1, EXIT_SUCCESS));
return 0;
}
This doesn't change the behavior of any well-formed Lua client, and
paying for one extra pointer test at os_exit() doesn't seem too steep
a cost to squash a warning.
