Is there an easy way to create standalone .exe files from Lua scripts? Basically this would involve linking the Lua interpreter and the scripts.
I believe it is possible (PLT Scheme allows the creation of standalone executables in the same way), but how, exactly?
Answer
Check out for srlua. It does what you need.
It's from one of the Lua authors. On this address there is also pre-compiled Windows binaries, so that would be even easier for you I think.
