I don't plan to cover language basics in this tutorial. The expectation is that the reader has already followed the advice in
this wiki page and made himself familiar with Lua.
As mentioned at the end of the first part, the next part will be about reacting to user input and slashcommands are the simplest way to do that without building a gui. Mentioning /script is a good idea as it is really nice to be able to try things without having to reload the UI.
I will write about events in another part as they are not really necessary for handling input and I want to keep the parts focused on one aspect at a time.
