LuaSandbox.lua

Introduction

Before any files in your project are loaded, Codea loads a file named LuaSandbox.lua that contains code to disable Lua functionality considered to be unsafe in the Codea environment.

The functionality disabled in version 1.5.2 of Codea is as follows:

arg = nil         -- table with command line arguments
os.execute = nil  -- passes a command to the operating system
os.exit = nil     -- terminates the host program
