Thanks for signaling this, the problem was fixed on trunk. Note, however, that there is a difference between
uart.write( 1, "15" )
that acually writes 15 to the screen, and
uart.write( 1, 15 )
that writes the _character with the ASCII code 15_ on the screen (and it's not even meant for sending data to a screen, but for sending raw binary data; consequently, you can't use this function for sending a number larger than 255 to the UART). And, since the character with code 15 is not printable, you won't actually see anything on the screen.The documentation doesn't mention this properly, I'll fix this too. If you want to see the decimal representation of a number on the screen, simply use print, or even uart.write like this:
uart.write( 1, tostring( 15 ) )
Best,
Bogdan

Hello,
I would like to report a bug in uart.write( ... ) function.
When you call it like uart.write( 1, "eLua" ), using a string without any numbers, it works fine.
But when I'm trying to send a number, something goes wrong. The same problem occours if I try to use it like uarte.write( 1, "15" ).
Any idea?!
Thanks,
Teo
