Steve, I downloaded luamacro-1.5.zip and tried it out (I've used it 
before, but not in a long time). The macro above worked perfectly.

But I had a quick question about one of the example files in the zip 
archive, functional.lua. I noticed that the following line worked even 
though it seems to have an error (last character is a curly brace, not a 
parenthesis):

for_(t,print(2*_)}

If I replace '}' with ')' I get exactly the same output. Is this 
intentional?
