- Subject: Lua for Windows: Why not use LuaRocks instead?
- From: Matt Campbell <mattcampbell@...>

I've been watching the recent mailing list discussions on Lua for
Windows. I wonder why there is a desire for this kind of "batteries
included" distribution, in light of LuaRocks. It seems to me that
instead of trying to include every library under the moon, it would be
better to just include Lua, LuaRocks, and SciTE. A GUI front-end to
install rocks might be nice, but then we're talking about a tool for
programmers here; it seems to me that a command-line interface shouldn't
be a problem. Thoughts?
