Since Marcelo also started with a similar extension we'd like to continue working together. If you don't know what lua is: | Lua is a powerful, fast, light-weight, embeddable scripting language. | | Lua combines simple procedural syntax with powerful data description | constructs based on associative arrays and extensible semantics. Lua | is dynamically typed, runs by interpreting bytecode for a | register-based virtual machine, and has automatic memory management | with incremental garbage collection, making it ideal for | configuration, scripting, and rapid prototyping. | | 'Lua' means 'moon' in Portuguese and is pronounced LOO-ah. Sidenote: Lua is a great language (I love it) and I am very happy to see it embedded in PHP. Thanks a lot for this initiative :) It will make all sort of things possible, like for example allowing people to write addons/plugins for websites that would run in a secure sandbox. Great ! -- Bertrand Mansion

And what will the next language be? Perl? Python? Why is everyone interested in implementing one language inside another? Tijnema -- Vote for PHP Color Coding in Gmail! -> http://gpcc.tijnema.info
