thread.lua

---
-- Allows you to work with threads.
--
--Threads are separate Lua environments, running in parallel to the main code. As their code runs separately, they can be used to compute complex operations without adversely affecting the frame rate of the main thread. However, as they are separate environments, they cannot access the variables and functions of the main thread, and communication between threads is limited.
--
--When a Thread is started, it only loads the love.thread module. Every other module has to be loaded with require.
--
-- NOTE: The love.graphics module has several restrictions and therefore should only be used in the main thread.
