For +installation instructions, license details, and further information about Lua, see the +documentation of LUA. + +There is a pitfall in using release candidates: when the bytecode organization changes +we can get crashes. At some point the luac version became an integer so we could encode +a subnumber but that was reverted to a byte. This means that we again can get crashes +(unless we mess a bit with that byte). It makes usage a bit fragile but so be it. |
