Martin and Mike,

I'm happy to see somebody else interested using Lua in DOS.
I'll give you my version tomorrow, because I haven't it here.
Thanks Mike for your Lua.exe.

My graphics library uses DOS interrupts and it isn't very fast because 
it is written in Lua (but if there is some interest I can write some 
built-in functions).
I added to Lua some functions. I.e.: read from/write to memory/port, 
call DOS interrupts, read in a table the directory contents.
For this reason, I suppose that I must change the name of the 
executable (I changed the Lua source, so I can't call it Lua, isn't 
it ?). Could be "Luna for DOS" a right name or is it too much similar 
to Lua ? (Luna in Italian means Moon in English).

I hope to send tomorrow an email where I explain a "Stack overflow" 
error when luaM_realloc() calls lua_error().
