Lua is a powerful light-weight programming language designed for extending applications. Lua is also frequently used as a general-purpose, stand-alone language. Lua is free software.

Lua combines simple procedural syntax with powerful data description constructs based on associative arrays and extensible semantics. Lua is dynamically typed, interpreted from bytecodes, and has automatic memory management with garbage collection, making it ideal for configuration, scripting, and rapid prototyping.

Selector is a general frontend to pass files to an executable with parameteres.

Changes:

Changed control system. L and R are used now to navigate faster, and command line selection has been moved to B and X. Rest of controls remain unchanged.

Skin drawing code changed to use minimal lib 0.B, so now they look better.

CPU speed reduced to the limit (60Mhz).

New optional configuration parameter for a different layout that allows using skin backgrounds similar to those of NK’s emulators

More examples, a little better documented, new skins, and skin templates.

danzel has updated his IRC and Telnet client for the PSP.

Changes:

Did some additions to get connecting to cygwins telnetd working. Some big changes to the renderer, now it is called directly instead of with message passing. This gives some big speed ups (libcaca mplayer is almost compeletely smooth at default speed). I was hoping to hold this for the next version, but as my CVS server machine has died I’m including it now. This may lead to a crash as I haven’t thread safed it yet, but malloc/free is called much less, so there shouldnt be crashes related to that anymore.
