Ahh.  Thanks.

Yes, by default licensecheck scans only a somewhat arbitrary subset of
files based on their file extension.  I find that fundamentally flawed
(i.e. not fixable by changing the set of extensions) and I expected a
future release of licensecheck to move away from extension-based
selection (either by default or altogether).

If you see some particular need for current extension-based selection
(just extended to include .lua) then please do share - perhaps I am
simply lacking in imagination.
