Thanks Luiz.

I copied it to /usr/local/lib/lua/5.1.
Which is where I found the expat lxp.so  library which is working great.

Require finds it but I get this error.

jimmie@squirrel:~/lua$ lua

error loading module 'lalarm' from file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/lalarm.so':

Am I doing something wrong?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
