Luiz, OK, thanks. Is there any way to make it more compact (and more readable to me, at least), where the loop is tested at the top of the loop? Here is what I use:
 while true do
 str = S:Next()
 if str == nil then break end
 -- [code]
 end
I think I generally use something like:
str = S:Next()
while str do
 -- [code]
 str = S:Next()
end
which is no more compact, but I prefer it anyway, especially for a simple "next" assignment like that.
