Title: io.popen() does not work

io.popen() does not work, this code fails:

local f=io.popen("dir","r")
for line in f:lines() do SendToAll(line)
end

Error is:

Code Select

attempt to index local 'f' (a nil value)

When calling from Lua CLI and replacing SendToAll with print it works fine:

Code Select
