Oh, I'm so sorry! I hadn't tested exactly what I gave you (I'd put the contents of utils.lua into the writer for testing, but then put it into a new file to share with you, so the writer didn't need to change), but I forgot to put 'return utils' at the bottom. I've now added this line: https://gist.github.com/wlupton/2fc23fc1c4e4b4899121bfafc0fea4bf#file-utils-lua-L51 and this time I've tested it locally. Please try again.
