Code For PSP Using Lua

- Shine, member of the PS2Dev Forums, has been porting the Lua programming language to the PSP.
- Using it he created a Snake game, the source for which is in the same thread.
- Another member, ector, has also been working on a LuaPlus port, for those interested.
- Don't know what Lua is? Well, I didn't either, but here is what the developers have to say at Lua.org:

"Lua is a powerful light-weight programming language designed for extending applications. Lua is also frequently used as a general-purpose, stand-alone language. Lua is free software.

Lua combines simple procedural syntax with powerful data description constructs based on associative arrays and extensible semantics. Lua is dynamically typed, interpreted from bytecodes, and has automatic memory management with garbage collection, making it ideal for configuration, scripting, and rapid prototyping."
