RiscLua is a dialect of the Lua programming language,
with modifications and extensions to make it suitable for RISC OS.
Although it has gone through many versions, the central aim behind it has
remained the same: to provide a powerful but simple language,
with most of the capabilities of BASIC and plenty of its own.
There is extensive documentation for the Lua language. These notes
aim to get the beginner started with RiscLua. They are divided into
three sections: how to use RiscLua, example programs, and a language
reference section to cover the examples and parts of RiscLua
particular to RISC OS.
