Sol2: Pass arguments to script file?

[sagunkho]

Related to #125 , how does one pass arguments to a script_file?

I don't think there's a well-defined way to do it.

Copying the example from the related issue, I would assume its by doing this

sol::load_result fx = lua.load_file("script.lua");
fx("your", "arguments", "here");

-- script.lua
local a,b,c = ...
print(a,b,c)

Tested and seems to work fine.

Or did I misunderstand what passing arguments to script file meant?

Well, today I learned something new. Neato.

I'll tag this as documentation, since it should probably be put in the docs.

Yup, every script/chunk you execute can be viewed as a function, it's pretty neat. :)
