orif is the or operator combined with elseif.

It's similar to this (if Lua allowed this):

local flag = false
if i == 1 then
   flag = true
   goto next
elseif i == 2 then
   ::next::
   print(flag)
else
   print"Unknown!"
end

This can be written in stock Lua without any new features by using
nested if blocks:

local flag = false
if i == 1 or i == 2 then
   if i == 1 then
     flag = true
   end
   print(flag)
else
   print"Unknown!"
end


But now you check for the condition twice.
