overview = [[Since Lua doesn't have (yet) built-in capabilities for bit operations, the $bit$ module was added to eLua to fill this gap. It is based on the ^http://luaforge.net/projects/bitlib^bitlib^
library written by Reuben Thomas (slightly adapted to eLua) and provides basic bit operations (like setting and clearing bits) and bitwise operations.]],
