Overview
Leg is a Lua library which offers a complete Lua 5.1 grammar, along with some functions to use and modify it. Some examples of projects which could benefit from Leg are a syntax highlighter, a Luadoc-style document generator, and a macro preprocessor.
Leg uses
LPeg for pattern matching, and returns
LPeg patterns for user manipulation.
Leg is available under the same
license as Lua 5.1.
Dependencies
Download
Leg can be downloaded from its
LuaForge page.
