+GopherLua is a Lua 5.1 (+ `goto` statement from Lua 5.2 and `ipairs` as in Lua 5.3)
+VM and compiler written in Go. GopherLua has a same goal
 with Lua: **Be a scripting language with extensible semantics** . It provides
 Go APIs that allow you to easily embed a scripting language to your Go host
 programs.

 - GopherLua has a function to set an environment variable : ``os.setenv(name, value)``
 - GopherLua support ``goto`` and ``::label::`` statement in Lua5.2.
     - `goto` is a keyword and not a valid variable name.
+- GopherLua respects the `__index` metamethod in `ipairs` as in Lua 5.3.
