The Operating System API allows for interfacing with the Lua based Operating System itself. The functions of this API are: os.version() which returns the version os.computerID() which returns the computerID os.run( environment, programpath, arguments) os.loadAPI( name ) which loads an API os.unloadAPI( name ) which does the opposite os.pullEvent() os.queueEvent() os.clock() returns the time. os.startTimer( timeout ) os.sleep( timeout ) makes the system wait a bit before doing something. Helpful with fake loading. os.time() returns the time. Varies from clock via precision. os.setAlarm( time ) os.shutdown() which is exactly what is said on the tin. os.reboot() which does what it says.
