openf

If modname is not already present in package.loaded. calls function openf with string modname as an argument and sets the call result in package.loaded[modname], as if that function has been called through require.

If glb is true, also stores the module into global modname.

Leaves a copy of the module on the stack.

hsluaL_tolstring :: State -> StackIndex -> Ptr CSize -> IO (Ptr CChar)

Converts object to string, respecting any metamethods; returns NULL if an error occurs.
