Line 378: == Use of underscore == Use of undersore (<~~source~~syntaxhighlight lang="lua" inline>local _ = Config.new()</~~source~~syntaxhighlight>) as a variable name breaks several tools for Lua, as it is assumed to be used for unassigned values. Or breaks, some of them silently fails as statements involving an underscore are simply neglected. (Not sure if complete code paths involving a neglected statement are neglected.) [[User:Jeblad\|Jeblad]] ([[User talk:Jeblad\|talk]]) 01:24, 6 November 2019 (UTC) :{{ping\|Jeblad}} The underscore is currently used in a very limited and controlled way, within a local scope. It's not used with Lua tools, so I don't think there is an issue really.

The code in the module is very clean and sophisticated but I was going to suggest that the global variables be cleaned up. I'll post a list and have a look at that later if wanted.
