(also on OSX) Actually all we do is rename the directory .love, and then double-click the resulting icon (so /user/Game becomes /user/Game.love). You can still navigate into the folder itself, it just changes the double-click (and the icon) action to "run with this program" rather than &qu...

I can get a set word pattern, but how do I get, say, the third character? And how do I feed that back so I can do something with it? EDIT: Ah, string.sub is (one of) the ...
