Lua is a powerful, light-weight programming language designed for extending
applications. The language engine is accessible as a library, having a C
API which allows the application to exchange data with Lua programs and also
to extend Lua with C functions. Lua is also used as a general-purpose,
stand-alone language through the simple command line interpreter provided.
.
This package contains developer resources for using the Lua library.
Install it if you are developing programs which use the Lua C API, both
in C or C++.
