<!-- ALL-CONTRIBUTORS-BADGE:END -->

LuaConsole is a next-gen, Cross-Platform [Lua-5.1.x, LuaJIT-2.0, Lua-5.2.x, Lua-5.3.x, Lua-5.4.x]-supporting CLI made to supersede PUC-Lua and LuaJIT CLI

For more information, visit LuaConsole Github Website and the LuaConsole Github Wiki!

Goals

• Be a better CLI application than PUC-Lua/LuaJIT
• Support everything compatible with PUC-Lua and LuaJIT
• Prevent messy, obfuscating code
• Be CLI dependent and independent
• Multiplatform - Linux, Windows, Mac (unofficial)

Testing

Linux

# Help command
luaw --help /? -?

# REPL Mode
luaw
luaw -p

# From the command
luaw res/testing.lua -Dtest=5 -n a b c
luaw -lres/testing.lua -Dtest=5 -n a b c
luaw -Dtest=5 -n a b c - < res/testing.lua

# With Shebang enhancements found below
res/testing.lua -Dtest=5 -n a b c

# Using cat
cat res/testing.lua | luaw -Dtest=5 -n a b c -

# From inside Lua
luaw -e "dofile('res/testing.lua')" -Dtest=5 -n a b c
luaw -e "dofile('testing.lua')" -s res -Dtest=5 -n a b c

# stdin:
luaw -
dofile('res/testing.lua')
<Ctrl + d>
<Enter>
