Re: Microsoft released a Lua 5.3 implementation in Go

Good to know, but still the Lua coroutines are still unimplemented, the functions creating or using them return errors. This limits the usability of the i/o library and running Lua programs depending on the producer/consumer model.

However this implementation has threads instead (and it may eventually implement later the coroutines with them, using thread control functions).

I found out via Hacker News [2].

Goals include being "up to date" and "close to the Lua spec". [3]
