I told you to use -jv, so you don't need to guess.

You don't do it by hand of course. I showed you how to generalize
it. I'm not going to do the work for you.

No it was not. Learn how to program in Lua, not blindly transcribe
(suboptimal) C code.

I'm sick of this whining. I will not reply to you anymore.
