Hi,
I want here to talk about the future of Lua and its evolution,
especially in the additionnal modules that can work with Lua.
Recently, I wanted to build a networking application in Lua. I found the
LuaSocket module, but you must have a Lua interpreter linked with it in
order to use socket.* calls !
That's not really what I call a simple way of extending the Lua
possibilities :)
I think Lua should provide something quite similar to Python : a
directory of libraries that are dynamicaly loaded with the Lua
interpretor, and something similar to import for module loading in the
Lua script.
I don't know if it is possible, or even if it is part of the Lua
improvements planned.
Any comment or idea is welcome :)
