Re: Lua script to Windows or DOS executable?

[Asko Kauppi <asko.kauppi@...>]

I did that for a serial port logging tool at my former employer.  The 
clue is in using luac (to compile the script), bin2c (to wrap the 
compiled script as a lua table) and then to link them together with 
main Lua (which is set up so that it initiates the script block, of 
course).

I'm afraid I don't have a "keys ready" solution for you, though.  That 
one was custom made, using Hamster as the build tool to automate the 
process, but you could use a makefile.  It isn't complicated, and well 
worth someone doing a generic solution (or a working example) on.
