Brilliant. osprocess + luash + powershell will make me very happy.
--forked from https://github.com/zserge/luash to add powershell support
https://github.com/WinLua/luash

I see you also have a dotnet module. Does this allow for running
managed .net assemblies directly in Lua?

Your LuaPlus project looks pretty amazing. It's more or less what I
want to do with WinLua (only yours is better). I didn't want to spend
the time integrating other packages so I was looking to include
luarocks with my installer.

Thanks,
