- There's an equivalent `lx path bin` command, but there's also a `lx run` that lets you run installed packages.

- We're still quite early on in development, so documentation and things like error messages will need fleshing out.

- We don't have luvit integration yet

- Yes, it also works with LuaJIT, either via pkg-config or by installing LuaJIT headers using the `luajit_src` crate.

Are there any documentation on this?

luarocks works with luajit after I run that specific command, I expect something like that as it is very easy, so I wonder if running "lx path bin" would work.

Only the `lx --help` and man pages.

I will take a look when I get into Lua again. :)
