Why isn't Lua more widely used?
Granted, being a script language, Lua can only hope for a niche
position, and can never become as popular as C or C++.
However, why is Lua *so much* underrated, compared to Javascript, for
instance? Could not Lua be used in browsers and do as much a good job
as Javascript? I mentioned browsers, but my point is more general.
