--- Checks uses of undeclared global variables.
-- All global variables must be 'declared' through a regular
-- assignment (even assigning <code>nil</code> will do) in a top-level
-- chunk before being used anywhere or assigned to inside a function.
-- From Lua distribution (<code>etc/strict.lua</code>).
-- @class module
-- @name strict
