some questions about lua

["jason zhang" <jason@...>]

I'm a newbie to lua. And there are some questions:
1. What is the pronunciation of 'lua'?   I want to use
lua as the script of our game project and need to tell my teamate
what is lua.

2. I cannot surf  http://lua-users.org  Are there any mirror sites?

3. Where can I find the specification of lua5.0?  Or work version?
I cannot find it on www.lua.org

4. Could I execute the lua script step by step? For example, I have
the following script:
  man_go_forward( 100, 100, 100 );
  while( !button_pressed ){ man_wait() };
  man_talk( "some words" );
  man_fight();
I need some control or some delay between lines of script. I need to
execuate the script to some line, then engine code , then the script from
the last position .....
    Is it possible?

Thank you.
