Re: Upgrading NSE to Lua 5.3

Hi Patrick,

I see now. I realized the library bin was broken but didn’t think about checking the specific tag you told us to test 
hehe. The branch at that revision seems to work as expected. I got an error related to bit.bor() but it looks like it 
is related to the changes you are working on:

sh-3.2# ./nmap -p443 --script ssl* scanme.nmap.org

Anyway, the new branch worked on my side =).

Cheers.
