I've implemented a version of Lua for Objective Caml. The implementation is called Lua-ML. You can read a paper about it at http://www.eecs.harvard.edu/~nr/pubs...-abstract.html You can get the code from http://www.cminusminus.org/code.html Lua is very popular in the gaming industry; there is lots of info at www.lua.org. -- Norman Ramsey http://www.eecs.harvard.edu/~nr  |
