Trouble installing/compiling lua on macosx

I have been attempting to compile/install Lua on Snow Leopard. I have changed the target platform in the Makefile.std to macosx and I still get the following issue:

sudo make -f Makefile.std macosx

make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'macosx'. Stop
make: *** [macsox] Error 2

I also changed the target of the same Makefile.std file in the src directory.

Is there something I'm missing here?

I have tried "make macosx" amongst other variations...

This should be easy.

Note also that there are Lua packages in MacPorts and Fink.

Did you download the source from lua.org? The official distribution does not contain a Makefile.std. Doing "make macosx" should just work. Get the official tarball.
