[cmds] Add Lua interpreter as external application by rafael2k · Pull Request #2594 · ghaerr/elks (original) (raw)

I'm unsure about using Lua 5.1 as default... it seems to have some kind of memory leak with drawcube

Lua 5.5 is working so much smoother

But Lua 5.5 seems to be much more stable and faster.

IMO, you've just answered your (and my) question. Lets drop Lua 5.1 and just distribute and compile 5.5 only. Compilation times will be quicker, and we can respond when people actually start using the software, rather than confusingly shipping three versions.

the old Lua 5.1, because it is smaller.

All this is going on HDD only, so that matters not. But if its buggy, we shouldn't ship it at all at this time.

Give us a couple of days to decide.

Ok. I'll commit this and then we'll decide on a single Lua interpreter, how's that?
