== Build == To build against the default Lua version 5.2, just run: make Distributions like Ubuntu allow you to build against several versions of Lua. To select e.g. 5.1, run: make LUA_VERSION=5.1 If your system does not have multiple versions of Lua available (e.g. Gentoo), try this while omitting the version number: make LUA_VERSION= If these do not fit you, you can configure CFLAGS and LIBS instead: make LUA_CFLAGS=-I... LUA_LIBS=-l... == Example == For the minimal commandline example you will need lua-term [1]. Put it in the working directory when you try to run the example. [1] https://github.com/devurandom/lua-term
