Makes funcname in Lua same as var? (lua syntax)

[Xavier Wang <weasley.wx@...>]

this is the complete syntax of lua:

chunk ::= {stat [`;´]} [laststat [`;´]]

block ::= chunk

stat ::=  varlist `=´ explist | 

functioncall | 

do block end | 

while exp do block end | 

repeat block until exp | 

if exp then block {elseif exp then block} [else block] end | 

for Name `=´ exp `,´ exp [`,´ exp] do block end | 

for namelist in explist do block end | 

function funcname funcbody | 

local function Name funcbody | 

local namelist [`=´ explist] 

laststat ::= return [explist] | break

funcname ::= Name {`.´ Name} [`:´ Name]

varlist ::= var {`,´ var}

var ::=  Name | prefixexp `[´ exp `]´ | prefixexp `.´ Name 

namelist ::= Name {`,´ Name}

some Personal view:

function foo() ... end is the semantics sugar of foo = function() ... end, but one can write

local t = {}

t[1] = function() end

but can not write:

local t = {}

function t[1]() end

so maybe:

funcname = var [`:' Name]
