Minetest Lua Mainmenu API Reference 0.4.12
========================================

Introduction
-------------
The main menu is defined as a formspec by Lua in builtin/mainmenu/
Description of formspec language to show your menu is in lua_api.txt

Callbacks
---------
core.buttonhandler(fields): called when a button is pressed.
^ fields = {name1 = value1, name2 = value2, ...}
core.event_handler(event)
^ event: "MenuQuit", "KeyEnter", "ExitButton" or "EditBoxEnter"

Gamedata
--------
The "gamedata" table is read when calling core.start(). It should contain:
{
	playername     = <name>,
	password       = <password>,
	address        = <IP/adress>,
	port           = <port>,
	selected_world = <index>, -- 0 for client mode
	singleplayer   = <true/false>,

fgettext_ne(string, ...)
^ call core.gettext(string), replace "$1"..."$9" with the given

fgettext(string, ...) -> string
^ same as fgettext_ne(), but calls core.formspec_escape before returning result
core.parse_json(string[, nullvalue]) -> something (possible in async calls)
^ see core.parse_json (lua_api.txt)
dump(obj, dumped={})
^ Return object serialized as a string
string:split(separator)
^ eg. string:split("a,b", ",") == {"a","b"}

^ eg. string.trim("\n \t\tfoo bar\t ") == "foo bar"
core.is_yes(arg) (possible in async calls)
^ returns whether arg can be interpreted as yes

Version compat:
core.get_min_supp_proto()
^ returns the minimum supported network protocol version
core.get_max_supp_proto()
^ returns the maximum supported network protocol version

Async:
core.handle_async(async_job,parameters,finished)
^ execute a function asynchronously
^ async_job is a function receiving one parameter and returning one parameter
^ parameters parameter table passed to async_job
^ finished function to be called once async_job has finished
^    the result of async_job is passed to this function

Limitations of Async operations
 -No access to global lua variables, don't even try
 -Limited set of available functions
	e.g. No access to functions modifying menu like core.start,core.close,
	core.file_open_dialog
