    Hi Gedalya

It looks like this is a matter of the quality of my code, but it seems that luasql should, ideally, be backwards-compatible with itself and with the way 5.1 works. I would imagine there is plenty of code out there that relies on this behavior, so it would be nice if there's a way to keep it working.
    Fair enough.  I would add the global assignment to the
5.1 version.  But I think when compiled for Lua 5.2 the code should
respect the new behaviour and _do not_ assign to the global variable.
Don't you agree?

Yes, makes sense.


It's worth noting that I'm new to lua, and obviously I copied-and-pasted the luasql code. I can't say what the original URL was, but the example code here[1], the project homepage, is henceforth broken, and it's probably where I got it from. The docs in github seem to be updated.

In fact, they are not. You can check the actual version at github.com:

https://github.com/keplerproject/luasql/blob/master/doc/us/examples.html

I thought I saw it partially updated with lines like:

local driver = require "luasql.postgres"

As opposed to the site.


    I am very busy these days, but the site update is on my list.

Thank you!!
