Standard Lua?
How much of the standard Lua libs are present?
This is what I've done to see what kinds of binds are available ( common trick in GMod ): for k,v in pairs( _G ) do print( tostring( k ) .. " - " .. tostring( v ) ) end
However, almost none of the standard lua libs are present ( most notably, file input/output functions ).
Also, anyone figure out how to run a lua file? I can't read the console cause the letters are so damned small, and pressing and holding the left/right arrow keys and backspace results in a VERY slow scroll/delete speed ( not to mention, there's no scrollbar for the console ).

Re: Standard Lua?
The os and io libraries are not included for safety's sake. Data's decision.

Re: Standard Lua?
It would at least be nice if there was a /data/ directory where you could write .txt only files ( the way Garry's Mod handles them.. it works pretty well.

Re: Standard Lua?
Data said something about giving us a special save file functionality, but we have yet to find it. Have to wait till he gets the documentation done.
