Oh, this is nice, we have our undergrads implement a compiler to Lua bytecode as part of their term projects, and currently use a homebrew OCaml package. This seems to be pretty complete, however, and it would be interesting for me to reimplement some stuff with this..
Unfortunately the Lua bytecode isn't really documented or intended to be generated, meaning that you essentially have to reverse engineer it. (Maybe not "unfortunately;" it's not meant to be used like that, but unfortunately for people looking to find projects to assign people...) kris On Fri, Oct 5, 2012 at 9:51 AM, Anupam Jain <ajn...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi all, > > I just released luachunk-0.1 on Hackage > (http://github.com/ajnsit/luachunk).
