The end product of a few days of hacking together code: an interactive Lua terminal, in the browser, via AJAX magic.

The javascript side was lovingly ripped from the TryRuby site (as it is conveniently BSD licensed). The server side is implemented using Apache, mod_lua, a custom "persistent Lua" C module and some Lua scripts.

Feel free to try it out, but remember that it is currently very crude and at the technical proof of concept stage, rather than nice user friendly stage.
