./lang/lua54, Lightweight, embeddable scripting language (v5.4)

[ Image CVSweb ] [ Image Homepage ] [ Image RSS ] [ Image Required by ] [ Image Add to tracker ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 5.4.7, Package name: lua54-5.4.7, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

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.

This version is the previous stable release.
