How would I pass arguments to a file using loadfile()? I need to pass arguments to a file somehow, while it acts as a function.
Why? I'm making an OS with utilities I have created, and since I don't want 30 lines for a function, I would like to have a file have sets of utilities for the OS, like how real operating systems do things. So how would I do this? I am creating an alert box, and I want to be able to pass text. Thanks!

local func = loadfile( "thefileyouwanttorun" )
func( arguments )

I need to get the arguments into the actual program. I know how to pass arguments, but I need the code to actually take account of that.
