Lua is quirkier than I realized
- 1-based indexing
- iterate over string is kinda tricky ....
- luarocks doesn't add itself to path
- no builtin formatter for table
- no built-in debugger ??
- repl doesn't have history
- no socket support in stdlib (no stdlib?)
- blocking io by default (for a project like socket)
- no continue in loops - gotta use goto or function call (function call good)
- actually continue is just a kind of goto ... function calls better
