LuaCmd Minetest Mod
===================

This mod adds the useful debugging command /lua which executes its parameter
string as a Lua chunk, as if it were being run in the body of a function inside
some mod file.  Errors are reported to the player via in-game chat, as is
anything sent to the print() function.  For example, entering the command:

   ]/lua print("Hello self");

will result in the following output in the in-game chat console:

   issued command: /lua print("Hello self");
   Hello self

whereas entering the (erroneous) command:

   ]/lua ^

will result in the following output:

   issued command: /lua ^
   Server -!- ERROR: [string "/lua command"]:1: unexpected symbol near '^'

A slightly more useful example might be the command (note: though shown here
with line wrapping, it must actually be done on a single line):

   /lua for _, player in ipairs(minetest.get_connected_players()) do
        print(player:get_player_name()); end

Any player executing this command must have the new "lua" permission, as it is
about the most dangerous thing you could allow a player to do.  Also not
recommended for public servers.  Use at your own risk!
