So I'm going to build the latest sources and I found that luasocket is included with the sources; dose this mean we will be getting sockets in Love in future versions?

Luasocket has been available out-of-box for quite some time.

Code: Select all

require("socket")

Right, it is incredible, but there is (was) no mention of the socket module in the wiki. So I have added this page.
