testglobal.lua

-- very simple lexer program which looks at all identifiers in a Lua
-- file and checks whether they're in the global namespace.
-- At the end, we dump out the result of count_map, which will give us
-- unique identifiers with their usage count.
-- (an example of a program which itself needs to be careful about what
-- goes into the global namespace)
