Hi Hernan,
luajit http://luajit.org/ is a just in time compiler (JIT) for lua, that means 
that you get machine code (as in a C or C++ source compiled) from lua which is 
faster (http://luajit.org/performance_x86.html) than pure Lua virtual machine 
code.
Besides that, luajit gives you FFI (http://luajit.org/ext_ffi.html) which lets 
you use any module (.dll or .so) that is exporting functions from Lua directly 
without having to compile a Lua binding for that.
Best

  Hi, Victor.
  Thanks for answering.


  I am very interested in wxLua.


  If you can say me something about LuaJIT (that I could understand), I 
appreciate it.

      Hello, friends.


      I am initiating in wxLua, that is Lua with Widgets.


      I can run a .lua with lua51 and lua53. I am interested in Lua53.


      I can run a .wx.lua with lua51, but not with lua53, but I am interested 
in lua53.


      Can you tell me how can I run the wxLua examples in lua v5.3?


      Thank you.
