Hi Spiffo,
This is taken from the lua manual PIL lua.org/pil/6.html
A somewhat difficult notion in Lua is that functions, like all other values, are anonymous; they do not have names. When we talk about a function name, say print, we are actually talking about a variable that holds that function.
If functions are values, are there any expressions that create functions? Yes. In fact, the usual way to write a function in Lua, like
function foo (x) return 2*x end
is just an instance of what we call syntactic sugar; in other words, it is just a pretty way to write
foo = function (x) return 2*x end
… so in other words either format is fine!
Yes you must include (mod,value,source) – It may be possible to just include function(mod) if you only use ‘mod’ in the function, or function(mod,value) but there’s no good reason for doing that that I can imagine.
Adapting Possemo’s code, you could simply do something like:
if source ~= 4 then return end
at the head of each function you want to block.
