That was a typo :)
If I were to speculate, which I have to in the absence of actual
details,
This actually happen in the sort method of my list object:
http://dev.alt.textdrive.com/file/lu/LUList.lua
If no comparator is explicitly provided, the list lookup one by asking
its first value for a comparator function.
I would guess that you misspelled the name of the comparator
function, thereby passing table.sort nil as its second argument which
indicates the default comparator, <. < doesn't work on tables:
There was indeed another typo in the method used to lookup the relevant
comparator. Damn globals :P
Thanks!
