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 net lanes

To install copy the multi folder into your environment and you are good to go
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 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
