Hi,
I just finished reading through the first two section of the reference
manual.So regarding my initial question:

I didn't see a metamethod for the assignment operator in the
manual.For reading I can use the function metamethod so that you can
read the value just by typing the name but what metamethod can I use
for writing to it?Can I define my own metamethods?Did I miss something
in the manual?
