This build uses lua5.3.4 which was compiled with -O2 -g0 and lua53.dll

Licenses included with the src.

  • Removed un-updated bulk headers to files
  • Improved the build scripts a lot
  • Added new build scripts
  • Now uses .dlls instead of static link for portability and compliance with LuaRocks
  • Lua Console Additions are now fully independent and its own dll
  • Much smaller size between everything (131 kilobytes)

Includes testing.lua, which prints out arguments inputted using the -n switch at the end. It displays use of the -D switch using the 'test' variable print. Now tries to call an invalid function for error testing display.

Instructions:
Make a folder in your C:\Program Files\ or where ever and make a 'bin' folder. Shove lua.exe, luaw.exe, and luaadd.dll into it. Add this 'bin' folder to your path. C:\Program Files\LuaConsole\bin, for example. Or just use the wiki's method and shove them into C:\Windows\System32.

Use luaw when you want to do stuff in lua and use the interpreter.

If you are a Linux user and you are on this page to get binaries there is something wrong. (Use build.sh in the root after getting source)
