Lua extensions
Lua is a 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.

Common uses of Lua are:
 * A configuration language for applications.
 * A standalone scripting language.
 * An embedded language in applications to modify runtime behaviour.

To get introduced into Lua, please read the briefest introduction to Lua. For deeper knowledge please read this tutorial for the newcomers to the language. As a suggestion, please consider to get this Lua Short Reference. The Awesome framework is built with Lua as the extension language. Some of all extensions can be seen below:


 * awful - the standard awesome Lua library.
 * awful.menu - a popup menu library.
 * Beautiful - a theming library.
 * Obvious - a new implementation of a widget library made since Wicked.
 * Vicious - a modular widget library derived from Wicked.
 * Space Invaders - allows you to play Space Invaders with Awesome
 * Naughty - a popup notification library
 * Shifty - dynamic tagging library with advanced client matching and sane configuration
 * Eminent - effortless wmii-style dynamic tagging library that does not require any rc.lua changes
 * Rodentbane - a library for rapid control of the mouse cursor using just the keyboard
 * Flaw - an object oriented library to manage widgets.
 * couth - yet another extension library -- includes visual popup notifications for alsa and mpd volume.
