'module' is deprecated but it is still present in Lua 5.2. I run LuaRocks in Lua 5.2 all the time (it does have a runtime check for setfenv and any other Lua-5.1-specific code). If 'module' really goes away in Lua 5.3, I may follow Petite Abeille's approach and ship my own version along. -- Hisham http://hisham.hm/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and their applications.
