Hi, I like the LUA language, actually It's me who add it in the first place. Some of the purpose is detection of OS items at runtime, and interaction with graphic menu system. And honestly, I'm not happy with it being removed from main repository as this make it harder to maintain. But no worry, I've created a fork project BURG that contains some brand-new features, the LUA engine will be added back soon. -- Bean My repository: https://launchpad.net/burg Document: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Burg _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
