RE: Lua multiplatform problems

["John Paquin" <jpaquin@...>]

If I remember correctly, using doubles for floating point is strongly
discouraged on the PS2, right?  So if your PS2 lua is compiled to use
floats, make sure your PC version is also compiled to use floats (the
distribution defaults to doubles).

Probably a mismatch in the size of ints in both platforms. You should have
received a clear message about this. If not, post more details.

Cross-compiling has been discussed before here in the list, and some simple
solutions proposed. Search the archive or contact me offline.
