Family Historian is the UK's leading desktop
genealogy application. Version 5 comes with an integrated editor/debugger
and API, which allow users to easily control and manipulate every aspect of
their data, using scripts written in Lua. Scripts can also be shared with
other Family Historian users as plugins, using the Family Historian Plugin
Store, access to which is also integrated into the program.

plugins, see http://www.family-historian.co.uk/pluginstore.
We are very pleased with Lua, and with the way we
have been able to integrate it into the program. Scripts run fast, and are
about as economical and simple to understand as one could hope
for.
Version 5 was released in March 2012, but it didn't
occur to us to announce it here, until we saw from the "Where
Lua Is Used web page updated" thread that the author trails this list for
announcements of applications using Lua.
