You'll find an updated Lua 5.1 on OS4Depot which includes dynamic library support.

This means it is now possible to extend Lua with a ReAction tookit for example without modifying Lua itself. It is also possible to add a Lua interface to any existing AmigaOS library like ARexx was added to some libraries in days gone by. This is accomplished by adding an Exec Interface named "lua" to whichever library you want to be Lua compatible and adding code to convert to and from the world of Lua. A skeleton library is provided as an example.
