I think it would be good if Emacs included "lua-mode.el": http://luaforge.net/projects/lua-mode/ Lua is a very nice scripting/embedded language[*]. Both mode and language are free software (lua-mode.el is GPLed, Lua itself uses the MIT license). -miles [*] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lua_programming_language -- Saa, shall we dance?
