Humm, sounds interesting, but I'm fairly busy with the bindings and
trying to get them to be better/faster/smaller/more usable etc.
Matthew, would this be something you could look into? This sounds like
something you'd want to do it for your program anyway, let us know if
it works or if anything needs to be changed.

You can also set a environment variable to add lib search paths.
$export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/lib or $PWD
or better yet include the old path, but prepend us
$export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
in a script that you use to run wxLua. This is how Mozilla (for
example) does it with their binary tar.gz from mozilla.com for linux.
This makes it much easier on the end user.
