+## Lua Workshop 2012
+
+*Textadept - Behind the Scenes* ([slides][])
+
+Textadept is a fast, minimalist, and ridiculously extensible cross-platform text
+editor for programmers. It is written in a combination of C and Lua. Textadept
+uses Lua to solve many interesting and complex problems encountered in text
+editor design, including syntax highlighting, syntax-based code completion, and
+scripting external C libraries and GUI components. This talk will focus on
+examining the internals of Textadept, from its innovative LPeg syntax
+highlighting engine to the embedded Lua scripting environment that provides
+nearly all of the editor's features. Come learn about Textadept and also about
+how you can use and extend it to fit your workflow.
