Lua sock is also specific to certain Unixes. I couldn't get it to compile on
NeXTstep for example. Although python, which comes with socket libraries, 
compiled without problems. It would be great if one could get a single package
with all the good lua libraries that compiled and worked on a number of platforms.
I think that this, more than anything else, would help make Lua a more popular 
(and usefull) scripting language.
