.B lua

|

[
|

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
17
|
+
.B lua
|
18
|
+
is the stand-alone Lua interpreter.
|
19
|
+
It loads and executes Lua programs,
|
20
|
+
either in textual source form or
|
21
|
+
in precompiled binary form.
|
22
|
+
(Precompiled binaries are output by
|
23
|
+
.BR luac ,
|
24
|
+
the Lua compiler.)
|
25
|
+
.B lua
|
26
|
+
can be used as a batch interpreter and also interactively.
|
27
|
+
.LP
|
28
|
+
The given
|
29
|
+
.I options
|
30
|
+
(see below)
|
31
|
+
are executed and then
|
32
|
+
the Lua program in file
|
33
|
+
.I script
|
34
|
+
is loaded and executed.
|
35
|
+
The given
|
36
|
+
.I args
|
37
|
+
are available to
|
38
|
+
.I script
|
39
|
+
as strings in a global table named
|
40
|
+
.BR arg .
|
41
|
+
If these arguments contain spaces or other characters special to the shell,
|
42
|
+
then they should be quoted
|
43
|
+
(but note that the quotes will be removed by the shell).
|
44
|
+
The arguments in
|
45
|
+
.B arg
|
46
|
+
start at 0,
|
47
|
+
which contains the string
|
48
|
+
.RI ' script '.
|
49
|
+
The index of the last argument is stored in
|
50
|
+
.BR arg.n .
|
51
|
+
The arguments given in the command line before
|
52
|
+
.IR script ,
|
53
|
+
including the name of the interpreter,
|
54
|
+
are available in negative indices in
|
55
|
+
.BR arg .
|
56
|
+
.LP
|
57
|
+
At the very start,
|
58
|
+
before even handling the command line,
|
59
|
+
.B lua
|
60
|
+
executes the contents of the environment variable
|
61
|
+
.BR LUA_INIT ,
|
62
|
+
if it is defined.
|
63
|
+
If the value of
|
64
|
+
.B LUA_INIT
|
65
|
+
is of the form
|
66
|
+
.RI '@ filename ',
|
67
|
+
then
|
68
|
+
.I filename
|
69
|
+
is executed.
|
70
|
+
Otherwise, the string is assumed to be a Lua statement and is executed.
|
71
|
+
.LP
|
72
|
+
Options start with
|
73
|
+
.B '\-'
|
74
|
+
and are described below.
|
75
|
+
You can use
|
76
|
+
.B "'\--'"
|
77
|
+
to signal the end of options.
|
78
|
+
.LP
|
79
|
+
If no arguments are given,
|
80
|
+
then
|
81
|
+
.B "\-v \-i"
|
82
|
+
is assumed when the standard input is a terminal;
|
83
|
+
otherwise,
|
84
|
+
.B "\-"
|
85
|
+
is assumed.
|
86
|
+
.LP
|
87
|
+
In interactive mode,
|
88
|
+
.B lua
|
89
|
+
prompts the user,
|
90
|
+
reads lines from the standard input,
|
91
|
+
and executes them as they are read.
|
92
|
+
If a line does not contain a complete statement,
|
93
|
+
then a secondary prompt is displayed and
|
94
|
+
lines are read until a complete statement is formed or
|
95
|
+
a syntax error is found.
|
96
|
+
So, one way to interrupt the reading of an incomplete statement is
|
97
|
+
to force a syntax error:
|
98
|
+
adding a
|
99
|
+
.B ';'
|
100
|
+
in the middle of a statement is a sure way of forcing a syntax error
|
101
|
+
(except inside multiline strings and comments; these must be closed explicitly).
|
102
|
+
If a line starts with
|
103
|
+
.BR '=' ,
|
104
|
+
then
|
105
|
+
.B lua
|
106
|
+
displays the values of all the expressions in the remainder of the
|
107
|
+
line. The expressions must be separated by commas.
|
108
|
+
The primary prompt is the value of the global variable
|
109
|
+
.BR _PROMPT ,
|
110
|
+
if this value is a string;
|
111
|
+
otherwise, the default prompt is used.
|
112
|
+
Similarly, the secondary prompt is the value of the global variable
|
113
|
+
.BR _PROMPT2 .
|
114
|
+
So,
|
115
|
+
to change the prompts,
|
116
|
+
set the corresponding variable to a string of your choice.
|
117
|
+
You can do that after calling the interpreter
|
118
|
+
or on the command line
|
119
|
+
(but in this case you have to be careful with quotes
|
120
|
+
if the prompt string contains a space; otherwise you may confuse the shell.)
|
121
|
+
The default prompts are "> " and ">> ".
