# LuaDecompy

An experimental Lua 5.1 dump decompiler (typically dumped using `luac -o <out.luac> <script.lua>`).

## Example usage

```sh
> cat example.lua && luac5.1 -o example.luac example.lua
pp = "pri" .. "nt"

if 2 + 2 == 4 then
    _G[pp]("Hello world")
end

> python main.py example.luac
example.luac

==== [[example.lua's constants]] ====

0: [STRING] pp
1: [STRING] pri
2: [STRING] nt
3: [NUMBER] 4.0
4: [STRING] _G
5: [STRING] Hello world
