lua-value-browser

Interactively print and browse Lua values from the standalone interpreter.

$ luarocks install lua-value-browser

Lua module for interactively printing and browsing Lua values from the standalone interpreter.
Adds a parameterless function `browse` to the `debug` module on `require "debug.browser"`.
Keeps a linear history of visited values and therefore keeps references to values that otherwise might have been garbage collected.
Shows also meta values like: environments, upvalues, metatables and table keys which are tables, functions, threads or userdata
