- Subject: [ANN] NumberScript -- a little language that compiles to Lua
- From: TNHarris <telliamed@...>

The original NumberScript[1] for javascript was announced a few days ago. I
thought it would work well with Lua.

NumberScript has a compact syntax. There's no significant whitespace, no
semicolons, no braces, no operators. It uses only the numbers '0' - '9'.
For example, this simple script:
9795508356633822141337704998199448662254090
Which, of course, will print "Hello Lua!".
NumberScript for Lua depends on LHF's lbn module. That hadn't been uploaded to
LuaRocks yet, so I've submitted a rockspec for it and will show up soon. Until
then you can download directly from github and use Make.
