ModMaker.Lua is an extension library for .NET that loads, manages, and executes Lua code. This library was completely written from scratch according to the Lua 5.2 Language Definition. This library was designed to be simple to use. There is no stack manipulation, no managing of user-data values, and no complex function registration. This library does all the work. This library requires no rights by itself; however, it will demand rights based on what the hosting environment allows.However, there were some changes (see Changes) that were made to make it work with .NET.
