If I am writing a function which should be called with n params, the first thing I do is lua_settop(l, n). That way I don't have to worry if any params have been missed, as they'll now be on the stack with a nil value, I only have to check their type.

Don't know if it's a good idea, but it's what I always do, Iand so far 've not found any problems.

Thanks,
