persistent Data. PersistentTables was a major discovery for me! I did a lot of work with Userland Frontier [1], which incorporates just that, they call it odb...

What I do if I'm not doing the above

(apart from the usual amount of family, sleeping, eating, and such)

My interest in Lua

What brought me to Lua / my hopes

I am constantly on the search for a language that gives me: Ease of programming, cross-platform, and all that in a easily distributable way. Classical scripting languages like Perl/Python fall short here, as the all need a large set of lib-files to be installed on the target system. REBOL comes extremly close to what I want, with only one big drawback: it is commercial (not open), so I'd be dependent on the vendor to change/improve/maintain it.

What I still miss in Lua

Nothing much really, nothing I couldn't put in myself with a little help from my friends *G* [LuaCheia]
