lua-luxio - 13-1 main

Lightweight UNIX I/O and POSIX binding for Lua
.
* Reasonably good coverage of POSIX and BSD Sockets, including IPv6,
and some GNU extensions.
* Low-level. You get the return values and the errno for the bound
functions where possible. Others take a table to fill in, or
may return tables.
* High-level wrapper library providing nice IO access and to misc.
utility functions. Generates useful errors in assert()able form,
and provides meaningful __tostring metamethods to aid debugging.
* A high-level poll()-based event dispatch library.
* Sub-process handling library (read/write io.popen with job control).
* A prototype POSIX Message Queue-based IPC scheme that can serialise
most simple Lua values. (No closures, userdata, etc)
