lua5 palmos port (general 16 bit)

[Haemish Graham <haemish@...>]

Hi.

I am a newcomer to Lua, having come across it whilst researching options 
for a small embeddable scripting langauge. Lua is a fantastic piece of 
work! I have succesfully worked with the Win32 and PocketPC ports of Lua 
but now require a PalmOS port, there does not however appear to be an 
open source port for PalmOS. PLua was a nice port of Lua4 but  am I more 
interested in an open source port of Lua5 as I expect to need to 
optimize the library for space and speed.  Various people have posted on 
the subject of an open source port of Lua for PalmOS, did anything ever 
come of these projects? Is there any real advantage to Lua5 over Lua4? 
My exposure so  far has only been to Lua5 so  I am more familiar with 
the new style of various mechanisms.

Kind Regards.
