My study of Lua continues, and I've learned a couple of things:
1) Multiline strings can be delimited by double-brackets ([[
like
this
]]).
2) In order to avoid colliding with multiline strings and block
comments within block comments, block comments can have zero or more
equals signs between the double brackets, to identify pairs:
--[===[
This is the outer comment
--[[
This is the inner comment
--]]
And
--[====[
Here is another inner comment
--]====]
So there.
--]===]
3. Also, I'm not sure I published my solution to the indented-function
problem I'd mentioned before (with thanks to Jim Correia).
The revised codeless language model follows this message.
