About whether there will be the latest version (Lua 5.4.4) compatible

[Bannyfelt13]

I would like to know if it is still in a development stage or has been abandoned
Or are we still able to get an update or we just have to do it ourselves

@pollend can you comment on this?

If this helps, I used to maintain a fork of JNLua back with the original project it came from, OpenComputers: https://github.com/MightyPirates/OC-JNLua - it's no longer particularly active, but it's much newer than the fork I made for MovingBlocks.

The latest version supports Lua 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4 (5.4.4 - there's a blocker for updating to 5.4.6) on Windows x86/x64, Linux x86/x64/ARMv6/AArch64, Darwin/macOS x64/AArch64, and FreeBSD x64.

The repository above also contains a Zig-based toolchain build script that covers all platforms except FreeBSD.
