Lua standalone interpreter executes scripts via?

[Stefano <phd.st.p@...>]

In 'lua [options] [script [args]]' it seems that neither _G.loadfile nor _G.loadfile are used to execute 'script', is this correct?

Also rephrased, is there a way to have 'lua -lDSL test.lua' pre-process tests.lua before execution? I am aware I can use 'lua DSL test.lua' instead with an appropriate DSL lua script.

Thank you

Stefano
