MSYS-MinGW_Lua_Build.txt

-- Start MSYS/MinGW32 shell
msys64/msys2_shell.cmd -mingw32

-- Go into base directory of lua source files
cd /<driveletter>/lua-5.<version>

-- Compile Lua src with mingw
make mingw

-- Put final build output into proper structure using lua make's install target
make install INSTALL_TOP=../lua-$\(R\) INSTALL_BIN=$\(INSTALL_TOP\) TO_BIN="lua luac lua5*.dll"

-- Use 'echo' target to check make variables are correct eg.
make echo INSTALL_TOP=../lua-$\(R\) INSTALL_BIN=$\(INSTALL_TOP\) TO_BIN="lua luac lua5*.dll"
