There are many ways to go about this. It could read the cfg_*.lua files by providing its own implementations of the functions called in them and executing them with lua. This is one of the reasons why anonymous functions in bindings were replacd with strings. It would be impossible for such a tool to use function references for anything. Then it just matches those binding strings to its internal descriptions (or uses the 'bdoc' descriptions from the defaults). Alternatively it could use its own format and provide scripts to read that format.. but I prefer the first way. -- Tuomo
