11 Lua is a powerful, light-weight programming language designed
12 for extending applications. Lua is also frequently used as a
13 general-purpose, stand-alone language. More information about
14 Lua can be found in the docs (see below) or at: http://www.lua.org/

16LuaJIT 1.x is based on the Lua 5.1.x virtual machine and bytecode
17interpreter from lua.org. It compiles bytecode to native x86 (i386+)
18machine code to speed up the execution of Lua programs.
