The Lua VM, on the Web

Online demo: http://kripken.github.io/lua.vm.js/lua.vm.js.html

This began as an experiment to see how fast the Lua VM can run on the web. That was successful (performance is quite good in both firefox and chrome).

Next step is to iterate on the Lua <=> JS interoperability. Clever solutions to the lack of finalisers in Javascript are being searched for.

To build, run make emscripten in the lua subdirectory
