DSLua is a port of the Lua scripting language to the Nintendo DS.
Installation
- Download and unzip the file.
- Patch the DSLua ROM (either DSLua.nds or DSLua.sc.nds or DSLua.ds.gba) with #DLDI.
- Copy the scripts directory, which was in the download, to the root directory of card. User only need scripts/main.lua which is a file browser to execute lua scripts (DSLua won't work without it.) All the other files are just example programs.
- Copy the DSLua ROM to flashcard.
