Thanks Sean, Thanks again Luiz, Hi List

Luiz's point was so obvious and of course I needed someone to point it 
out to me, just write a Lua API over a C API. Sean's example is very 
straight forward and I could see this as easy enough to maintain but 
does anyone have feedback on maintainability with these two techniques? 
If I write a Lua API for a C API and the C API breaks so does the Lua 
one and of course they both break if the C core breaks. If the the C API 
breaks but not the C core the Lua API would not break. Does one strategy 
have more merit over the other, is there a third option?
