Beautiful, this should be on the Lua wiki right away. A configure file
would be even better, but I guess now is a good time as any to get
myself to re-read the autobook and try it out.
I wouldn't call it beautiful. That configure.ac I posted
was very minimal. For example, although it detects
that readline is available and passes the appropriate
flags to the linker, it does not define LUA_USE_READLINE,
so none of the functionality will be there.
This could be solved in several ways. To avoid
modifying the code at all, one could add
an AC_DEFINE and not use config.h (by removing
AC_CONFIG_HEADERS), but I think the more
appropriate solution would be to #include <config.h>
in luaconf.h and change the preprocessor
guards to the autonconf style HAVE_LIBREADLINE.
But that's the first step towards "a lot of work".
