<h2><a name="overview"></a>Overview</h2>
<p>LuaFileSystem is a <a href="http://www.lua.org">Lua</a> library

<p>Current version is 1.8.0. It works with Lua 5.1, 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4, and it runs on various
flavors of Unix (including Linux, BSDs, macOS) and Windows.</p>
<h2><a name="download"></a>Download</h2>
<p>LuaFileSystem can be installed using <a href="https://luarocks.org">LuaRocks</a>:
<pre class="example">
