Loved your function naming! :-)
What is this "str"?


>         if file.nameonly(filename) == "ward" then
>             str = table.concat(string.totable(str,"."), " + ")

What is this doing?

Why is "document.MyCharacterMess" a string? Isn't it less error-prone
to use the function itself, instead of its name?

Sorry for my naive basic questions... :-)


Cheers,
André Caldas.
