Very interesting! Thanks!

The paper says Java doesn't provide nested functions, but new Java does.

Hi,

I have been looking for a detailed description of how closures are
implemented in Lua, and found this document which appears to be an
unpublished draft version:

http://www.cs.tufts.edu/~nr/cs257/archive/roberto-ierusalimschy/closures-draft.pdf

I have read through the other papers but this one appears to go into
greater detail. Is it possible to add this document to the list of Lua
papers?

Thanks and Regards
