not exactly about your problem; but in general it's far easier to do
most in Lua.
my own history: i had a project that i knew would benefit from
scripting some functions to make it extensible. after a while, i
found that my C code was only low level hooks into the data storage,
with ALL the flow managed in Lua.
nowadays, i don't even bother writing 'executables', it's all Lua.
when i need some to access something with only C API, i write very
thin modules to make the needed functionality accessible from Lua.
in fact, that's why i wrote the Lua-TCC module: to make it easier to
prototype C code with Lua firmly in control
