What is the "it" in question? The screenshot you gave shows something in 
Java, and it's the same in both screens. Can you please provide more detail?

I saw something the other day about LuaAV (http://lua-av.mat.ucsb.edu/), 
which does video processing and display. But you seem to be thinking of 
an integrated "Flash player" type deal, which Lua does not have.

Lua *is* a virtual machine. Run "luac -l" on some of your code to see 
the bytecode it generates. The problem is, you have a very different 
conception of "virtual machine," more like the whole Java Runtime 
Environment - VM, class libraries, and starters for all different 
environments. I think you misunderstand the purpose of Lua - not to be 
an everything-in-the-box magic language, but to be simple and flexible 
so that people can extend it with what they need. There's a reason that 
Lua is only 200 K and Java is about a hundred times that size.

P.S. If you have a colleague who reads and writes English better than 
you, you might want to have them proof your e-mails before you send them 
to the list.
