Dear Peter,
More a lua design decision. 'nil' is equal to 'false' here
I know no CS theory behind lua design, but try this:
\starttext
\startluacode
if nil == false then
io.write("nil == false\n")
end
if nil ~= false then
io.write("nil ~= false\n")
end
\stopluacode
TEST
\stoptext
and get
nil ~= false
I think that what Peter meant was:
if nil then
....
end
if not nil then
...
end
