Lunatic Python is a two-way bridge between Python_ and Lua_, allowing these languages to intercommunicate. Being two-way means that it allows Lua inside Python, Python inside Lua, Lua inside Python inside Lua, Python inside Lua inside Python, and so on.

This is an improved version of Lunatic Python 1.0, as written by Gustavo Niemeyer and available from http://labix.org/lunatic-python.

Zach Dwiel has made some small changes to allow easy compilation on Ubuntu running lua5.1. It has been testing on Ubuntu 9.04, 10.04 and 11.04
