You can now use the hardest fastest and most dangerous language there is
with Cosmopolitan. So far about 75% of LLVM libcxx has been added. A few
breaking changes needed to be made to help this go smoothly.
- Rename nothrow to dontthrow
- Rename nodiscard to dontdiscard
- Add some libm functions, e.g. lgamma, nan, etc.
- Change intmax_t from int128 to int64 like everything else
- Introduce %jjd formatting directive for int128_t
- Introduce strtoi128(), strtou128(), etc.
- Rename bsrmax() to bsr128()
Some of the templates that should be working currently are std::vector,
std::string, std::map, std::set, std::deque, etc.
DESCRIPTION
Lua is a language designed for embedded use in native applications. It
has an impossibly elegant C API and the Lua language itself feels more
like Python compared to alternatives like Tcl except it's a great deal
faster and doesn't have strong opinions about character encoding.

New release number (5.4.3)
luac.c needed to be sourced from:

LOCAL MODIFICATIONS
The `\e` string literal escape sequence has been added, which is
equivalent to `\27` (the Lua version of `\033`) or the ASCII ESC
character. It may be used for teletypewriter control like having
bold text, which can be encoded elegantly as `\e[1mHELLO\e[0m`.
