Functions[edit source]
format[edit source]
lua
This function, unlike lua
and lua
, takes just two parameters—a format string and a table—and replaces all instances of lua
} in the format string with the table's entry for lua
. The opening and closing brace characters can be escaped with {\op}

, respectively. A table entry beginning with a slash can be escaped by doubling the initial slash.
