+This is Lua 5.2.3, released on 11 Nov 2013.
+
+For installation instructions, license details, and
+further information about Lua, see doc/readme.html.
+=================================================
+
+Embedding Lua
+-------------
+The Lua library instance, LuaLib, is defined by StdLib.inc.  Since, currently, all applications which
+embed Lua are also StdLib applications, StdLib.inc will be included by your package's .DSC file.
+
+The header files required to use LuaLib are in the standard include path at StdLib\Include\Lua.
+They may be referenced as:
+  #include  <Lua/lua.h>
+  #include  <Lua/lualib.h>
+  #include  <Lua/lauxlib>
+  #include  <Lua/luaconf.h>
+
+Lua/luaconf.h is the Lua configuration file.  If you wish to build Lua with custom characteristics,
+this is the file to modify.  Modify the file in StdLib\Include\Lua since the file in the Lua
+source tree is just a stub which references the file in StdLib.
+
+
+Installation on UEFI
+--------------------
+Install the Lua.efi file into \Efi\Tools.   This is the standalone Lua interpreter.
+Create a directory, \Efi\StdLib\lib\Lua.    This is the default location for Lua scripts.
+
+If desired, copy the files from AppPkg\Applications\Lua\scripts, in the source tree, into
+\Efi\StdLib\lib\Lua.
