Is it the output trying to say nil, or what?

Null means nil, you know what nil is don't you. So it'll the same thing, Nil is easier to understand

Null is the C representation of Lua's nil, just as Lua's nil is the representation of C's null. They're effectively one and the same, but if you get an error reading NULL instead of nil, then it's an error on the C-side of the engine, which you cannot see without hacking the executable, which wouldn't exactly help your problem any-who.

You actually can't get the C code from the executable. You'd be getting the assembly. ^_^
Assembly is so much fun!

Then again, you can translate the assembly to C, so I suppose it would be possible to get C code from an executable.

Also note I never said C code, just the C-side, which the Assembly therefor falls under. ^^

(Assembly is something I want to learn but never get around to doing anything with.)
