Yes, exactly. We also figured Linux distributions are already covered by including Lua packages directly. It would also be nice to have a Lua for Mac distribution too, but my Mac background is limited. Andrew
The size of the current Win32 distro is a bit worrying, though. python-2.5.2.msi is 10.8MB, Lua_v5.1.4.18.exe is 12.8MB.

At my level of Windows knowledge, I appreciate this package. I furthermore believe this allows exposure to a larger user segment since tools and utilities written in Lua could be more easily distributed to the many non-programmers who use Windows. It simply increases the potential audience of Lua.
