+  --static       Outputs the full path to the static libraries
+
+  --libs         Outputs the -L and -l switches needed to find the library
+  --libs-only-L  Outputs only the -L switches
+  --libs-only-l  Outputs only the -l switches
+
+  --extralibs    Outputs the -l switches appropriate to the extra libs needed by lua
+
+  Note that --static is mututally exclusive with the --libs* options
+
+  Also, you can specify the following
+
+  --vmonly       Outputs only the switches for finding the VM libraries
+  --libonly      Outputs only the switches for finding the standard libraries
+  --both         Outputs the switches for both [The default]

+.SH NAME
+lua-config \- Lua configuration information
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+Basic usage

+.B gcc

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The lua-config script allows you to determine useful information
+about the chosen version of lua running on the Debian GNU/Linux
+system in use.
+More information can be found by running
+.B lua-config
+without any arguments.
+.SH CAVEATS
+This script is unique to Debian and as such you shouldn't rely
+on its presence on every system. Lua is an embedded language
+by default and different Linux distributions each take a different
+approach to making it possible to compile with Lua. The 
+.B pkg-config
+system also provides a way to look for libraries and is more likely
+to be supported across different Linux distributions. Debian's
+.B pkg-config
+name for Lua 5.0 is
+.I lua
+and the libraries are in
+.I lualib.
+These
+.B pkg-config
+files can be found in the 
+.I liblua-dev 
+and 
+.I liblualib-dev 
+packages.
