improved repl for lua?
Anybody install this recently? I just got it installed by not in a usable way: https://github.com/giann/croissant/issues/8.
ilua

A good REPL solution
ILua (https://github.com/guysv/ilua). “ILua is a feature-packed, portable console and Jupyter kernel for the Lua language.”

improved repl for lua?
In practice, though, I don't need to look for anything better because I ditched it in favour of using ilua, which is just a console frontend to a Jupyter Lua kernel. Or just using Jupyter directly.

Thank you for lua.org/demo.html
Or better yet, use iLua for a much nicer interactive experience. Or set up a Jupyter kernel so you can have a persistent testing ground for Lua stuff. Or use repl.it, which can do both plain Lua and Love2d REPLs.

Does Lua not allow top level expressions?
I hadn't even noticed. I use ILua instead of the built-in REPL if I'm doing anything longer than a single function, and Debian has lua linked to Lua 5.2 even with 5.3 installed so that's what I interact with when I run the basic interpreter to check something quickly. I could change that easily enough but then I'd have to swap it back to automatic later and I'd probably forget so I just don't bother. lol
