 The current Lua documented functions don't cleanly match
 "general commands" (section 1).
 
 Lua man pages:
 
 gpio.3lua        gpio.close.3lua  gpio.open.3lua   gpio.set.3lua
 gpio.unset.3lua  intro.3lua       syslog.3lua      gpio.attach.3lua
 gpio.info.3lua   gpio.read.3lua   gpio.toggle.3lua gpio.write.3lua
 sqlite.3lua
 
 intro.9lua pmf.9lua   systm.9lua
 
 In my opinion they match section 3 (Library functions) and section
 9 (Kernel). as they are document ordinary API. All man pages section
 3 and 9 are in comp.
 
 If there is exception for Lua then OK, I was just wondering.
