.\" Manual page for lua-config

.\" For the Debian GNU/Linux system
.TH lua-config 1
.SH NAME

.SH DESCRIPTION
The lua-config script allows you to determine useful information
about the chosen version of lua running on the Debian GNU/Linux
system in use.
More information can be found by running
.B lua-config
without any arguments.
.SH CAVEATS
This script is unique to Debian and as such you shouldn't rely
on its presence on every system. Lua is an embedded language
by default and different Linux distributions each take a different
approach to making it possible to compile with Lua. The
.B pkg-config
system also provides a way to look for libraries and is more likely
to be supported across different Linux distributions. Debian's
.B pkg-config
name for Lua 5.0 is
.I lua50
and the libraries are in
.I lualib50.
These
.B pkg-config
files can be found in the
.I liblua50-dev
and
.I liblualib50-dev
packages.
