Please add in api, if you can

### 3/5 — First glance

*2013-02-01*

Seems to be a good environment for learning Lua.  I request that you also provide the learning materials in English.  I am going to try to work through the book 'programming in lua' using this app.

I may update this when I'm further along.

### 3/5 — Good so far! (Revised)

*2012-12-22*

It's easy to use and it hasn't given me any trouble yet. Though, the UI is very confusing and it lacks a landscape mode. If you need a simple, free lua processor for your phone, this is it.

The formatting on my script got ruined and I am unable to edit my code properly. I'm going to try to get around it but you really need to fix this stuff.
