   7 Embedding Lua
   8 -------------
   9 The Lua library instance, LuaLib, is defined by StdLib.inc.  Since, currently, all applications which
  10 embed Lua are also StdLib applications, StdLib.inc will be included by your package's .DSC file.
  11
  12 The header files required to use LuaLib are in the standard include path at StdLib\Include\Lua.
  13 They may be referenced as:
  14   #include  <Lua/lua.h>
  15   #include  <Lua/lualib.h>
  16   #include  <Lua/lauxlib>
  17   #include  <Lua/luaconf.h>
  18
  19 Lua/luaconf.h is the Lua configuration file.  If you wish to build Lua with custom characteristics,
  20 this is the file to modify.  Modify the file in StdLib\Include\Lua since the file in the Lua
  21 source tree is just a stub which references the file in StdLib.

  24 Installation on UEFI
  25 --------------------
  26 Install the Lua.efi file into \Efi\Tools.   This is the standalone Lua interpreter.
  27 Create a directory, \Efi\StdLib\lib\Lua.    This is the default location for Lua scripts.
  28
  29 If desired, copy the files from AppPkg\Applications\Lua\scripts, in the source tree, into
  30 \Efi\StdLib\lib\Lua.
