If you just want to compile Lua to a PBP, you'll find an example in the lua directory from the psp svn repositoy in the "sample" folder. If you want to compile Lua Player, you'll need to compile zlib, libpng, lua and mikmod first and then LuaPlayer from the pspware svn repository (see the README.psp's from these projects, how to compile it). See the PSPSDK forum how to compile programs for the PSP, but you should be familiar with Unix, C, Unix shell commands and the Makefile concept, first, before you try it.

That's a tall request. All lua scripts like Javascripts meant to be interpreted, not compiled. Yes, it is possible to convert Lua scripts to a C by hand and then compile it with tool kits like they did with Lua Player. That would be a BIG job!

Have fun :)

Edit: Shine beat me to the replying. Cheez.
