Re: Win32 Lua to EXE

[Stefan Sandberg <keffo.sandberg@...>]

The packagemodel is very flexible, and it's very easy to write your own 
loaders, and fetch your source data from wherever you like.
I wrote something akin to Starkit 
(http://www.equi4.com/starkit/index.html) using metakit to do this for 
the keplerproject,
but I never finished it properly (I was to hell bent on completely 
binding metakit itself to lua)..
Basically it injects it's own loader, and from then on all requires and 
io happen inside the db file, which can be an external file, or appended 
to the executable like starfish.
