The [LuaDoc](../index.html) is the ultimate resource on scripting Textadept. There are of course abundant scripting examples since Textadept is mostly written in Lua. +## Lua Configuration + +[Lua 5.1](http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/) is built into Textadept. It has the +same configuration (`luaconf.h`) as vanilla Lua with the following exceptions: + +* `TA_LUA_PATH` and `TA_LUA_CPATH` are the environment variable used in place of + the usual `LUA_PATH` and `LUA_CPATH`. +* `LUA_ROOT` is `/usr/` in Linux systems instead of `/usr/local/`. +* The `LUA_COMPAT_VARARG`, `LUA_COMPAT_MOD`, `LUA_COMPAT_GFIND`, and + `LUA_COMPAT_OPENLIB` compatibility flags for Lua 5.0 are turned off. + ## Scintilla The editing component used by Textadept is [Scintilla](http://scintilla.org). |
