Hello
I'm an amateur hobbyist
programmer, completely new to Lua. It sounded so interesting that I thought
I'd try learning how to use it.
I don't really understand how to
install it. I've downloaded the latest version as lua-5.1.tar.gz, and have
opened it as:
C:\Program Files\lua-5.1. It has
subdirectories called doc, etc, src, and test. Am I on the right track so
far?
Do I now need to download a C
compiler ? and if so, what do i do with it? What does it mean to "build" the
downloaded file?
Is there some kind of easy install
process for newcomers?
Thank
you
Alex
