Add it in Tori
- Open Settings with the gear in the title bar.
- Go to LSP.
- Lua is already there: it ships inside Tori. When the catalog has a newer version, Add a language lists it with Update.
Adding writes one file and runs nothing. Downloading the release from LuaLS/lua-language-server is a separate click; Tori checks its checksum first.
Use it without the catalog
Download the file and drop it in the folder below. Tori loads it the next time it starts.
Download file lua.toml
~/.config/tori/packs/lsp/
