In windows, i think it is necessary to create a bat version of a lua
file, if you wish to execute it from the command line. This is used
for things like busted and luacheck and perhaps others.

It appears that there is a facility to wrap a lua file in this way. I
believe that it happens in `win32.wrap_script` in `/fs/win32.lua`.

I am curious about how this is accomplished. In looking at the file,
it appears that you set the luafile variable to the file name at the
top, but I can't grok how you are making this work with the path.

When I've done this, I make sure that the 'myutil.lua' file and the
'myutil.bat' file are sitting next to each other and I writhe the
following:
(assuming that lua.exe is in the path)
```
@echo off
lua.exe %~dp0\myutil.lua %0
```
`%~dp0` expands to the path of the `myutil.bat` file, which would be
the wrapper.

I don't see where you've done that. Did you do it differently and if so, why?
