It can work this way as well. The library allows you to load ui files, create 
widgets and access qobject tree from lua. A simple c++ program which just 
loads and executes your lua script with the library does what you want. Such a 
program will be packaged with the library.

The library includes a lua console Qt widget with history and completion 
feature. This is usefull in scriptable Qt applications but can be used to 
debug or test lua/qt code easily too.
