I can't figure out how to get my mining turtle to pulse redstone. I've tried redstone.setOutput(left, true) and redstone.setAnalogOutput(left, 10) in the lua interperater, but both of them gave me syntax errors. I'm am trying to get my mining turtle to pulse a redstone signal of at least 5 to the left for 2 ticks. Does anyone know how to do this?

redstone.setOutput("left", true)  -- Don't forget your quotes.
sleep(0.1)  -- Tenth of a second = 2 MineCraft ticks, or 1 redstone tick.
redstone.setOutput("left", false)
