: Back ticks effectively treat the rest of the statement as a block, by being preemptively removed before passing to the context, and execute as though were actually in the 'lua' context. Quotes are not removed normally as they may be important to the context's command processing. Back ticks are special in that they will be removed from the start and end of the script statement. Without this special behavior, there would be no way to run a multi-line command block for an associated context, without switching to it first. | : Back ticks effectively treat the rest of the statement as a block, by being preemptively removed before passing to the context, and execute as though were actually in the 'lua' context.

: Above calls the 'lua' context 'run' command, and as normal 'print "bob"' is a complete parameter for 'run', that then gets executed in the Lua runtime all together. | |||
