To build Lua in a common Unix-like platform, just do
make
The Makefile will guess your platform using uname and build Lua for it.
We welcome feedback on this, which is new, especially more uname targets
with explicit rules and fixes for existing ones.
We also welcome feedback on the listings output by luac -l -l, because
luac has been rewritten to account for the new VM instructions.
All feedback welcome. Thanks.
--lhfHi,A small patch to the mingw target would allow lua to build with the llvm-mingw compiler toolchain that I'm testing for windows. The llvm linker does not support linking directly against a dll.I've put the patch here: https://pastebin.com/Yw4ZMeqX
As usual, I'm quite late in the game but I thought I'd put it out there.Congratulations.Russ
