JavaScript name examples of treatening abbreviatures include "innerHTML", "baseURI", "CSSStyleDeclaration", "getAttributeNS", etc. Similarly, things should be probably camelCase'd and using uppercase for constants. Here's a rough list of renaming to be done:

Code: Select all

tostring > toString ; actually, maybe add it to "core" metatable, like in JS
tonumber > toNumber ; could be "parseFloat" with a separate new "parseInt"...
Math.huge > Math.HUGE
Math.pi > Math.PI
Math.randomseed > Math.randomSeed
rawlen > rawLen ; or rawLength
rawequal > rawEqual
rawget > rawGet
collectgarbage > collectGarbage
Package.loadlib > Package.loadLib ; or loadLibrary
Package.searchpath > Package.searchPath
Os.setlocale > OS.setLocale
Os.getenv > OS.getEnv
Os.diffTime > OS.diffTime
Os.tmpname > OS.tmpName
Debug.getupvalue > Debug.getUpValue
Debug.setuservalue > Debug.setUserValue
Debug.getmetatable > Debug.getMetaTable
Debug.setmetatable > Debug.setMetaTable
Debug.setlocal > Debug.setLocal
Debug.gethook > Debug.getHook
Debug.sethook > Debug.setHook
Debug.upvalueid > Debug.upValueId
Debug.upvaluejoin > Debug.upValueJoin
Debug.getinfo > Debug.getInfo
Debug.setupvalue > Debug.setUpValue
Debug.getuservalue > Debug.getUserValue
Debug.getregistry > Debug.getRegistry
Debug.getlocal > Debug.getLocal
Io.tmpfile > IO.tmpFile
getmetatable > getMetaTable
setmetatable > setMetaTable
dofile > doFile ; I'm not so sure about need in this one renaming.
loadfile > loadFile

Pattern for above list could be something like "(%S+) *> *(%S+) *;? *(.*)".
