i have been using lua for torch in command like. where i used luarocks
to install packages but now i have a need to debug some code. As suggested by the community "Zerobrane Studio" is a lightweight IDE for that purpose. i have installed it on ubuntu 14.04.
Now i want to install the same packages as the IDE has its own installation of lua. Packages are i.e "dp, dpnn, nn" but after some search i found out ZeroBranes Studio uses luadist
package manager. i went onto luadist.org. and tried one of the ways which lets you download the package using lua. i ran this code in the IDE. but it didn't work.
Use LuaDist functionality from Lua.
$ ./lua
> local ld = require "dist"
> ld.install("luaexpat")
Please help!
