[Lmod-announce] Lmod 7.7.14 released.

[Announcing n. v. of L. <lmo...@li...>]

This release fixes two problems and provides one new feature.   The first
is that Lmod now just uses the lua_json.lua package shipped with Lmod
rather than possibly using the one provide by the site.  The problem is
that the one provided by luarocks is only compatible with Lua 5.1 and not
later versions.  The version of lua_json shipped with Lmod works with all
known version of Lua.

This new version of Lmod provides a fix to the "sh_to_modulefile.sh" script
which converts shell scripts into modulefiles.  There was a bug where
giving unknown options caused it to fail in an ugly way.  This is now
fixed.   Also I tested generating a TCL modulefile using tcsh and worked
for me.

Finally, Lmod allows a modulefile to use pushenv to clear a value:

    pushenv("FOO", false)

This will probably be the last 7.7+ version of Lmod.  I plan on releasing
7.8 the week of November 27th.

P.S:  The Tacc Booth talk at SC17 was well attended.  It was great to meet
some new people and see some old friends.   The slides for the talk can be
