Hello Andreas, I was wondering if you have planned the implementation of the Lua <dofile> and/or <dostring> functions. Implementing at least <dostring> the possibilities with Hollywood will became endless allowing code morphing on the fly.

Regards, Fabio

I'm sorry, I can't implement these because this would mean that the player version of Hollywood (that is linked into executables) must be capable of compiling source code into byte code and that would make the player a full version. So sorry, this feature will surely NOT come :)
