Is it possible to change the order of parameters in a function taking varargs? Maybe using the select(n, ...) function?
This is what I want to do:
function foo(fmt, ...)
-- switch element 1 and 2 of {...}
print(string.format('%d %s', ...))
end
foo('%s %d', 42, 'balmer')
(background is doing i18n in Lua, whith messages (= format strings) that can have the order of parameters changed)
