Hallo,

Some areas are far too ambitious to roll into a standard

library, high quality audio, file/directory handling, signal handling,
etc.
That said, there are certain concepts that are common across a huge
range of platforms that could easily be encapsulated in a single file
and would likely benefit a lot of users. The obvious ones are a ms
accurate timer (when available), sleep, and maybe a handful of others.
Wasn't that the purpose of the LuaCheia project, to gather a handful
of useful Lua modules and build an integrated solution from them?
