Subpackage Descriptions
single LuaSocket is a Lua extension library that is composed of two parts: a C core that provides support for the TCP and UDP transport layers, and a set of Lua modules that add support for functionality commonly needed by applications that deal with the Internet. The core support has been implemented so that it is both efficient and simple to use. Among the support modules, the most commonly used implement the SMTP, HTTP and FTP client protocols. These provide a very natural and generic interface to the functionality defined by each protocol. In addition, you will find that the MIME, URL and LTN12 modules can be very handy.
