Lua 3.2 (beta) is now available for downloading at
http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/lua/ftp/lua-3.2-beta.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/lua/lua-3.2-beta.tar.gz
The Canadian mirror seems to be down right now, but when it comes up,
the software will also be available at
http://csg.uwaterloo.ca/lua/ftp/lua-3.2-beta.tar.gz
ftp://csg.uwaterloo.ca/pub/lhf/lua/lua.tar.gz
The other mirrors will be updated soon, hopefully.
The distribution includes an updated reference manual in HTML.
The PostScript version in the site is still for version 3.1.
* New in version 3.2beta
-----------------------
+ redirected all output in Lua's core to _ERRORMESSAGE and _ALERT
+ increased limit on the number of constants and globals per function
(from 2^16 to 2^24).
+ debugging info (lua_debug and hooks) moved into lua_state.
new API functions provided to get and set this info.
+ new debug lib gives full debugging access within Lua
+ new table functions "foreachi", "sort", "tinsert", "tremove", "getn"
+ new io functions "flush", "seek"
+ added lua_userinit hook so that sample interpreter can be easily reused
and user has control over which libraries are loaded.
Please send your comments to us at lua@tecgraf.puc-rio.br.
Thanks.
