So how does one go about using the "Lua For Windows" install with MinGW? I ask because I have been approached by a number of programming students/interns on how to get started with Lua using Eclipse + CDT (the cross-platform IDE of choice around here, which utilizes MinGW on Windows to provide GCC/GDB)
They would like to get comfortable with the language directly at first, by running through PiL and using the interactive Lua interpreter. Then they would like to move up to embedding it into their existing C\C++ projects.
I at first pointed them to the Lua.org site, but then lost almost half to various frustrations getting started (kids these days, eh?)
