You need to compile Lua using Android NDK to use it. To get a hint on
how to build it, you can take a look at my toy example [1], which uses
Lua and LuaJava (without much modifications) to have a simple Lua GUI
interpreter in an Android application. As a convenience, you can even
send Lua code to the GUI through TCP (because typing code on Android
keyboard is cumbersome :).
Of course, you do not need to provide a live interpreter, you can run
your scripts from the resources/assets or from sdcard...
