Lua 5.0.2

Bully uses Lua 5.0.2 with LUA_NUMBER set as a 4 byte floating point, and a few other differences that don't affect the way you'd compile or run scripts.
You can download a pre-compiled binary for the compiler and stand-alone interpreter.

Both of these tools are command line tools made for Windows, meaning they will only run using Windows' command prompt. If you don't know how to use the command prompt, consider checking out the tutorial.

You can run luac.exe without passing any arguments to get the help dialogue.
The most common usage looks like luac -o ArcRace1.lur source.lua, which will compile source.lua into ArcRace1.lur.

You can run lua.exe by itself to run Lua in interactive mode, letting you write code that gets instantly executed.
You can also run a script by doing something like lua script.lua, where script.lua is the script you want to run.
