Title: lua.tcz Description: Lua scripting language Version: 5.1.4 Author: team AT lua.org Original-site: http://www.lua.org Copying-policy: MIT License Size: 116.0K Extension_by: vitex Tags: Lua scripting language Comments: http://www.lua.org/about.html: Lua is a powerful, fast, lightweight, embeddable scripting language. Lua combines simple procedural syntax with powerful data description constructs based on associative arrays and extensible semantics. Lua is dynamically typed, runs by interpreting bytecode for a register-based virtual machine, and has automatic memory management with incremental garbage collection, making it ideal for configuration, scripting, and rapid prototyping. See http://www.lua.org/docs.html for documentation. In particular, the "Lua 5.1 Reference Manual" is http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/ and "Programming in Lua" (first edition about Lua 5.0) is http://www.lua.org/pil/ ----------------------------------------------------- This extension was built from http://www.lua.org/ftp/lua-5.1.4.tar.gz using the MYCFLAGS="-DLUA_USE_POSIX -DLUA_USE_DLOPEN\ -DLUA_USE_READLINE -march=i486 -mtune=i686 -Os -pipe" MYLIBS="-lm -Wl,-E -ldl -lreadline -lhistory -lncurses" make CFLAGS="$MYCFLAGS" LIBS="$MYLIBS" generic This extension contains * "lua", the Lua compiler / interpreter, and * "luac", the compiler part of "lua" that produces byte code. Only "lua" is needed for scripting. See lua-dev.tcz for the developmental files from the Lua distribution and lua-doc.tcz for the documentation files. ----------------------------------------------------- Change-log: 2009/12/30 First version 2010/01/01 Rebuilt with support for readline Current: 2010/04/03 Added lua-doc.tcz
