Added

Lua 5.2 / Lua 5.3 / Lua 5.4

• Collapse a body containing only a goto statement when collapse_simple_statement is set (#618)

Changed

General

  • (lua52) Support Lua 5.2 fractional hexidecimal / hexidecimal with exponents (#621)
  • (lua52) Support LuaJIT number suffixes LL/ULL/i (#621)
  • (lua52) Support \z escape sequences in strings (#613)

• Fixed malformed formatting when there is a newline between a return token and the expressions (#605)
• Fixed malformed formatting of multi-assignment or multi-returns where there is a comment within the expressions list (#637)
