Re: Compiling LPeg on Windows

["Wesley Smith" <wesley.hoke@...>]

That's what I do in Visual Studio.  Make a dll project, edit out all
the kruft like resources and junky headers amonth other project
settings that MS puts in there for you.  Then, add the 3 main Lua
headers to your project as well as lua51.dll and you should be set.
And don't forget to add luaopen_lpeg to the .def file.
