lua-reserved-words

What problem does it solve?

Lua reserved words cannot be used as bare table keys — must bracket-quote them.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Always bracket-quote reserved words when used as table keys, e.g. ["break"] = { ... }.
• Lua 5.x reserved words: and, break, do, else, elseif, end, false, for, function, goto (5.2+), if, in, local, nil, not, or, repeat, return, then, true, until, while.
• Common traps in game content: break, end, return, not, and, or, do, repeat. The sandboxed loader catches this at load time — error message: "unexpected symbol near 'break'"

Quick Start

Always bracket-quote reserved words when used as table keys in your definitions.
