Convert LUA4 -> LUA5

[Jerry]

Hi ppl,

Can you somebody help me with this script, I need convert from LUA4 to LUA5!:

I convert script into LUA5 with NighLitch's convertor with GUI,
but PX report this:

[23:05] Syntax wmBot/main.lua:97: unexpected symbol near `.'

at this time :(

The error is in this line:

local min, math.max = string.byte("A"), string.byte("Z")

Can you help me with convert, please?

 THX

hi m8  


post the script in full  ..

Try replacing "math.max" with only "max".

Best regards,

jiten

OH, THX jiten it's working at this time!

But I have next problem, here is the script:

botname = config.botname

aboutinfo = "wmBot 0.22-1 JAFRA edit"

ownerlevel = 100

possrights = {
	hubadmath.min = 1,
	opadmath.min = 1
}

ops = {
	indexof = function(name)
		for i = 1, table.getn(ops.items) do
			if string.lower(name) == string.lower(ops.items[i].name) then
				return i
			end
		end
	end,
	items = { }
}

capslockwarns = { }

And the PX report this:

[23:25] Syntax wmBot/defs.lua:8: `}' expected (to close `{' at line 7) near `='

Where is the problem?

[jiten]

Replace this part of it:

possrights = {
	hubadmin = 1,
	opadmin = 1
}

Cheers

Hi jiten,

Thank you very much, it's working OK at now!

But I have only one, final problem:
in this script:

-- vtipy jsou nacitany ze souboru vtipy.txt ve stejnem adresari jako tento soubor
-- jednotlive vtipy oddelte znakem ~ (vlnovka) na samostatnem radku

-- napr:

-- vtip1
-- .....
-- ~
-- vtip2
-- .....
-- ~
-- vtip3
-- ....

commands["vtip"] = function(user, arg)
	f = openfile("wmBot/modules/vtipy/vtipy.txt", "r")
	if f then
		count = 1
		line = read(f)
		while line do
			if strsub(line, 1, 1) == "~" then
				count = count + 1
			end
			line = read(f)
		end
		index = random(1, count)
		seek(f, "set", 0)
		i = 1
		cur = ""
		line = read(f)
		while line do
			if strsub(line, 1, 1) == "~" then
				if i == index then
					break
				end
				i = i + 1
				cur = ""
			else
				cur = "\013\010"..cur..line
			end
			line = read(f)
		end
		closefile(f)
		chat(cur)
	end
end

modulehelp = modulehelp..
"\013\010.vtip - rekne vtip"

Th PX report:

[23:57] Syntax module.lua:46: attempt to index global `commands' (a nil value)

Can you PLS help me with this latest problem with this script -> THX!!!

[jiten]

Add this before "commands["vtip"] = function(user, arg)":

commands = {}
