+   Author: Julio Manuel Fernandez-Diaz
+   Date:   January 12, 2007
+   (For Lua 5.1)
+
+   Modified slightly by RiciLake to avoid the unnecessary table traversal in tablecount()
+
+   Formats tables with cycles recursively to any depth.
+   The output is returned as a string.
+   References to other tables are shown as values.
+   Self references are indicated.
+
+   The string returned is "Lua code", which can be procesed
+   (in the case in which indent is composed by spaces or "--").
+   Userdata and function keys and values are shown as strings,
+   which logically are exactly not equivalent to the original code.
+
+   This routine can serve for pretty formating tables with
+   proper indentations, apart from printing them:
+
+      print(table.show(t, "t"))   -- a typical use
+
+   Heavily based on "Saving tables with cycles", PIL2, p. 113.
+
+   Arguments:
+      t is the table.
+      name is the name of the table (optional)
+      indent is a first indentation (optional).
