Pure Lua Universal RunTime 01-21-2016, 05:18 AM

I may be going slightly insane, as the better part of my last two days has been learning more about Lua and putting this beast, PLURT, together.
What PLURT does is something that I as a programmer, and I'm sure many people reading this, have looked for for a while.
It can take arguments from programs in any language that support any form of stdout (print, usually) and bounce them around to different programs of different languages (ex.: lua script output -> python script input -> output).
What makes this so nice is that Lua is one of the most portable languages out there, meaning that PLURT and Lua itself take up a whole 1.4 MB, which might be less than the rest of your project.
Regretfully, I'm out of coffee and just finished writing my documentation on github, so I'm not rewriting it, and feel free to submit any bugs or changes you'd like to see on the repo.
Thanks a ton,

It's often the outcasts, the iconoclasts ... those who have the least to lose because they
don't have much in the first place, who feel the new currents and ride them the farthest.
