AFAIK, it goes like this
local print,tostring = print,tostring -- just like module(), this is a
private environment!
local _ENV = {}
function m1()
...
end
function m2()
...
end
return _ENV
Note that this kind of module has no name - you can put it anywhere in
the filesystem. You have to say 'local m = require 'mod'' because it
does not do any global magic.
