<title>&medit; Gtk API for Lua scripts</title>
<sect1>
<title>Introduction</title>
<para>Lua scripts running in &medit; have limited access to
<ulink url="http://www.gtk.org/">Gtk</ulink> functionality
exposed through <code>gtk</code> package in addition to functions in
<link linkend="chapter-script-lua"><code>moo</code> package</link>.
It is not a goal to provide complete Lua bindings for Gtk,
and it is not a goal to enable creating UI in Lua scripts.
If there is a demand, &medit; might bind more Gtk functionality,
but so far Lua in &medit; is supposed to be lean and mean
scripting language which is always available. Use Python if
you need more functionality.</para>
