If we aren't in a war then

?'1:'..o..' 2:'..p --reveal the cards
if(o==p)then --if doubles, start a war
    w=3 --set the number of cards left to draw for a war to 3
else --not doubles

    v={} --empty the table
    ?'s:'..(#x+#g-#y-#h)/2+26 --the round is over, display how many cards the player currently has
end

If we are in a war

?sub('raw',w,w) --prints the letters of war one at a time
w-=1            --reduce the number of cards left in the war
                --we have already drawn the card at the beginning of the game loop

I've commented every line, I'll go back through and point out some tweetcart tricks.
