My multitasking library for lua. It is a pure lua binding, if you ignore the integrations and the love2d compat. If you find any bugs or have any issues, please let me know.

INSTALLING
|
|
----------
|
|
Links to dependicies:
|
|
[bin](https://github.com/rayaman/bin)
|
|
[net](https://github.com/rayaman/net)
|
|
[lanes](https://github.com/LuaLanes/lanes)
|
|
|
|
To install copy the multi folder into your environment and you are good to go</br>
|
|
If you want to use the system threads, then you'll need to install lanes!
|
|
**or** use luarocks
|
|
|
|
~~Because of a codependency in net libaray, if using the networkmanager you will need to install the net library sepertly~~ The networkManager is currently being reworked. As of right now the net library is not required.
|
|
Going forward I will include a Release zip for love2d. I do not know why I haven't done this yet
|
|
**The Network Manager rework is currently being worked on and the old version is not included in this version. It will be released in 15.0.0**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
luarocks install multi
|
|
luarocks install lnet (If planning on using the networkManager)
|
|
```
