thank you. also it seems that i cant compile it? it says that trio.h is not found? is there a dependency im missing or something?

to be exsact its in override_printf.h
edit: ok just removeing the import works fine

From the README:

For installation instructions, license details, and
further information about Lua, see doc/readme.html.

No such file: doc/readme.html.

All of the code files seem to refer to lua.h, but an explicit statement / LICENSE file is nice-to-have.

Thanks for making this available!

Note that we don’t have it there with build instructions and or integration instructions. It’s just “the files”. Each platform we build on will have its own flags and so on that he used - none of that is there.

we use https://daniel.haxx.se/projects/trio/ for a printf that actually works correctly on every platform (which, amazingly, is not something you can just count on; i've run into the same problem in my own projects a couple times as well and grabbed trio for those too!)
