Description
The helper function exkeyvalstr returns a human readable string composed of the keys and values found in its sole argument. The keys and values are converted to strings before insertion into the resultant string, if they are tables they will be converted using keyvalstr. If the sole argument is not a table, then the string 'not a table' is returned. future versions of the library may alter the output slightly. the key* and exkey* helpers aren't intended to convert data into a dostring compatible format; use tabletolua to address that need.
