Posix bindings for Lua

Lightweight UNIX I/O and POSIX binding for Lua * Reasonably good coverage of POSIX and BSD Sockets, including IPv6, and some GNU extensions. * Low-level. You get the return values and the errno for the bound functions where possible. Others take a table to fill in, or may return tables. * High-level wrapper library providing nice IO access and to misc. utility functions. Generates useful errors in assert()able form, and provides meaningful __tostring metamethods to aid debugging. * A high-level poll()-based event dispatch library. * Sub-process handling library (read/write io.popen with job control). * A prototype POSIX Message Queue-based IPC scheme that can serialise most simple Lua values. (No closures, userdata, etc)
