A programming language of some note.

I had some small interest in this language, primarily because it's used for World of Warcraft addon programming and general scripting ^[ 1 ] Note that World of Warcraft's programming is separate from it's macros. , but I ended up losing interest in it and in programming in general.

Why does the second statement have two tabs after "from"?:

io.write("Hello world, from ",_VERSION,"!\n")
   print("Hello world, from ",_VERSION,"!")

=>
Hello world, from Lua 5.1!
Hello world, from       Lua 5.1 !
