When an alias or function written in lua attempts to call a function written in a lua using execfunc, the arguments are lost.

For example:

Function1:
zs.say("Function called")
zs.say(zs.params(1))
zs.say("Function end")

Function 2:
zs.execfunc("function1", "hello")

Then on the command prompt enter
#noop @function1(hello)

Outputs:

Function1 called
hello
Function1 End

Next on the command prompt enter
#noop @function2()

Outputs:
Function1 called

Function1 End

It seems only to keep arguments from the command line. For example
#noop @function2(hello)

Outputs:
Function1 called
hello
Function1 End

Even though the argument passed to function2 is never accessed. The lua functions seem to be sharing a common argument scope.

The help file says:
print( zs.execfunc("test",123))
calls the "test" function with the number 123 as the first argument (%1) and prints the value returned from the function

If the current behavior is considered correct, then the help file needs updating.
