An introduction into binding existing libraries for Lua:

The seventh (probably last) part of my series on Integrating Lua with C is all about binding existing C libraries to make their functionality available to Lua.
A good initiative.
I have just written a lengthy note in French, to my French teacher, to motivate him to learn video game development with @LuaLang and @obey_love . Chances are low, but if he catches the bait, it might mean I will have to get involved too, at least at start, to help him.
Are you curious how Lua loads code? Then this article might be of interest to you:
