Re: Lua to ECMAscript static compiler (or translator)

[Axel Kittenberger <axkibe@...>]

Javascript 1.7 (Mozilla) has generators which is eventually the same
thing as coroutines (just a tad more ugly to look at :-), but you are
restricting yourself to Mozilla/Spidermonkey then.

"ECMAScript Harmony" plans to have generators
http://wiki.ecmascript.org/doku.php?id=harmony:proposals

But who knows if this is going to be a consensus or a drama like ECMAScript 1.4

The same goes for 'let' which ought to provide proper lexical scoping.
Available now in Mozilla/Spidermonkey only, might be in a future
ECMAScript, might also be not.
