util.argparse: Fix bug (regression?) in argument parsing with --foo=bar After recent changes, '--foo bar' was working, but '--foo=bar' was not. The test had a typo (?) (bar != baz) and because util.argparse is not strict by default, the typo was not caught. The typo caused the code to take a different path, and bypassed the buggy handling of --foo=bar options. I've preserved the existing test (typo and all!) because it's still an interesting test, and ensures no unintended behaviour changes compared to the old code. However I've added a new variant of the test, with strict mode enabled and the typo fixed. This test failed due to the bug, and this commit introduces a fix.

local data = {}
local getinfo = debug.getinfo;
local function linehook(ev, li)
	local S = getinfo(2, "S");
	if S and S.source and S.source:match"^@" then
		local file = S.source:sub(2);
		local lines = data[file];
		if not lines then
			lines = {};
			data[file] = lines;
			for line in io.lines(file) do
				lines[#lines+1] = line;
			end
		end
		io.stderr:write(ev, " ", file, " ", li, " ", lines[li], "\n");
	end
end
debug.sethook(linehook, "l");
