This directory contains code that is more useful than the examples. This code *is* supported. lua.lua These are modules to suport dynamic loading of LuaSocket by the stand alone Lua Interpreter with the use of new "require" and "requirelib" functions. For my Mac OS X box, for instance, I place all files in /Users/diego/tec/luasocket and set the following environment variables: LUA_INIT=@/Users/diego/tec/luasocket/lua.lua LUA_PATH=/Users/diego/tec/luasocket/?.lua;?.lua LUA_PATHLIB=/Users/diego/tec/luasocket/?.dylib;?.dylib With that, I can run any luasocket application with the command line: lua <script> as long as the script uses "require" to load the needed namespaces. Much nicer than having to build a new executable just to initialize LuaSocket! tftp.lua -- Trivial FTP client This module implements file retrieval by the TFTP protocol. Its main use was to test the UDP code, but since someone found it usefull, I turned it into a module that is almost official (no uploads, yet). dict.lua -- Dict client The dict.lua module started with a cool simple client for the DICT protocol, written by Luiz Henrique Figueiredo. This new version has been converted into a library, similar to the HTTP and FTP libraries, that can be used from within any luasocket application. Take a look on the source code and you will be able to figure out how to use it. get.lua -- file retriever This little program is a client that uses the FTP and HTTP code to implement a command line file graber. Just run lua get.lua <remote-file> [<local-file>] to download a remote file (either ftp:// or http://) to the specified local file. The program also prints the download throughput, elapsed time, bytes already downloaded etc during download. check-links.lua -- HTML link checker program This little program scans a HTML file and checks for broken links. It is similar to check-links.pl by Jamie Zawinski, but uses all facilities of the LuaSocket library and the Lua language. It has not been thoroughly tested, but it should work. Just run lua check-links.lua {<url>} > output and open the result to see a list of broken links. Good luck, Diego.
