Lua versions 5.1 to 5.3 inclusive are supported, as is LuaJIT.

The problem is that OSX doesn't provide readline, it provides libedit 
instead, which is a BSD-based compatibility library.  It's not that 
compatible though.  For instance the global variable 
rl_completion_suppress_append is missing, hence the error.

See my reply to your other message for more on this.
