For exampl e placefloat.lua should be

Because I like to avoid redundancy.

It's easy to do things like this automatically:

local placefloat = {}
setfenv(0, placefloat)
dofile("placefloat.lua")
setfenv(0, _G)
print(placefloat.props.fixpart)

Or like this:

placefloat.lua:

entry = {               -- or "command"
      props = ...,
      args = ...,
      ...
}

And then:

local commands = {}
dofile("placefloat.lua")
commands.placefloat = entry (or command)
print(placefloat.props.fixpart)
