--Bizhawk: Common Lua Functions
--Purpose is to show functional examples of common Lua functions within Bizhawk
--Note that all functions can be viewed at http://tasvideos.org/Bizhawk/LuaFunctions.html
--Also note that in the Lua Console window -> Help -> Lua Functions window you get a list of functions with syntax and examples.

	-- WRITE FUNCTIONS
	
	--Replace above text "read" with "write", and add a parameter to write. and you will get all the options of writing bytes.

	--SCREEN FUNCTIONS
	   client.screenwidth() 
	   client.screenheight()

	if false == true then --never actually run, just have it uncommented for readability
		savestate.saveslot( 7 );
		savestate.loadslot( 8 );

	--JOYPAD FUNCTIONS
	--This KeyCheck function is helpful to determine the controller names when trying to access them in a table.  http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/edit/67926325655324243@user
	--joypad.getimmediate works similar to joypad.get()
