the problem is that the cartridge is using a deprecated "arg" variable for 
varargs. Kahlua only implements Lua 5.1 in which "arg" is replaced by "..." - 
see http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#7 , "changes in the language"

If i come up with a way to add it for backwards compatibility, i will, but i 
think that it will be needlessly difficult.

I suggest you replace this part of the code:
    for i = 1,arg[n] do
      local parArg = arg[i]
with:
    for k,parArg in ipairs({...}) do

the good news is that the original players use Lua 5.1 as well so this won't 
break compatibility.

Thank you very much, Jan. Now it works with the desktop version of openwig.

Best regards
