<id>urn:sha1:e992c6a95939c8e1fe357bfce481e0d0c762c3c6</id>
<content type='text'>
Compilation options LUA_COMPAT_GLOBAL, LUA_COMPAT_LOOPVAR, and
LUA_READLINELIB do not affect the API, so they can be changed
through the make file.

<content type='text'>
Lists in inline code don't get a space after commas. (That keeps the
code more compact and avoids line breaks in the middle of the code.)
