+Hi Lua users,
+
+I have just released version {{VERSION}} of lua-repl, an alternative to the
+standalone REPL included with Lua and a library for embedding a Lua
+REPL within a Lua application.
+
+lua-repl provides a library for adding a Lua REPL to your Lua-powered
+application.  It also provides an example REPL in the form of rep.lua,
+which can take the place of the standalone interpreter provided with
+Lua.  It has a plugin facility; plugins for things like history and tab
+completion of symbols are included in the lua-repl distribution.
+
+{{CHANGES}}
+
+You can install lua-repl via Luarocks (called luarepl there), or
+manually from the source [{{REFERENCE}}].
+
