Re: Finding and loading Lua files

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

Bringing up a year+2days old discussion to 2005..

I was surprised that 5.1w4 still has:

	#define LUA_PATH_DEFAULT  \
		"./?.lua;" LUA_LDIR "/?.lua;" LUA_LDIR "/?/init.lua"

This means, there's no common default for where system-wide library  
scripts would be installed, is there?  Of course, one can set the  
LUA_PATH variable, but couldn't (shouldn't) something like  
"/usr/share/lua/?.lua;/usr/share/lua/?/?.lua" be built-in by default?

I'm going to do this on fink (OS X) that has things under /sw anyhow,  
so possibly need to set LUA_PATH at least temporarily.  Still, opinions  
please..? :)
