Why do you say just about Lua again? Does Lua look like EU-system for you? I'd like to hear about some conventional language which has same power as EU-system. Do you know something about a DOS32 version of Lua etc etc etc?
Does Lua with its tables and automatic memory management and its simple syntax look unlike EU to you? But anyway, if you need a language that supports DOS32, Mac OS X, Linux, Windows, your Playstation or your toaster , Lua is ready. EU is not. It assumes 32bit pointers, for example.
This section is good to me and tell user about main features of EU.
And EU has these features from 1993 as commercial product.
Yes, EU was an awsome product in 1993.
Do you see 1994, not 1993 as you say?
In 1994, Lua didn't have any chance to be a commercial product.
But in 1994, EU was 1 years old commercial product.
Yes, sorry, I was wrong.
So, section 2.3 is good, it is one of the traditional Rob's sections.
<irony> Ok, leave section 2.3 as it is for historical reasons. Because people who read the documentation are more likely to be historians than programmers.</irony>
