Mark, I understand and agree with your point, but I would like to see a less structurally dependent way of accomplishing it. A file system in a limited environment may be essentially flat, not allowing multiple folders/directories.

In particular, when building subsystems out of a mixture of native code and Lua, it's very useful to only expose the Lua code while having the native code exposed just to the other pieces of the subsystem. For example, this allows one to handle all of the interface niceties and safety precautions in Lua and go with the simplest possible interface on the native code side. Mark |
