Home- app = event.new()
- app:close()
SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
The first function creates a new event processor instance which is needed to run an event loop using event:poll(). An application usually has exactly one event processor.
The second function is rarely used and releases the event processor, freeing its resources.
RETURN VALUE
An event processor instance.
NOTES
Traditionally, the variable used to hold the event processor is called app.
