TBH, I think that's one place the manual could do with a bit of work. The `:` function definitions are very common in Lua, but very opaque to new users. And all you've got is a small, very easy to miss paragraph buried in the overall description of function definitions. Possibly needs a clear sub-heading to that section to highlight it as important. Same for the `:` function call definition. Scott -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "lua-l" group.
