Hello,

I am a bit experience with dissector plug-ins written in C++. But I
would like to evaluate if dissectors could also be written in Lua. I
don't find an example in the Wireshark source code. Where do I find good
samples or tutorials to get a glimpse of Lua dissectors?
http://wiki.wireshark.org/Lua shows links to Lua basics and Wireshark's
Lua API, but unfortunately it doesn't include dissector examples.

Here is a dissector that I wrote in Lua for the SecondLife UDP protocol:
