how to distribute a lua file with c++

I know how to do stuff with Lua states and what not but what i don't understand is how you would distribute the final program with a seperate lua file because say you have a .exe and a lua file in the same directory how would I make it so that it is all one executable like how Löve 2d uses 

copy /b

to append the lua file to the Löve 2d interpreter so it can be distributed. could someone possibly explain how this works.

many thanks Blazing

You could embed the lua code directly into your C++ source in a raw string literal like so:

const auto lua_code = R"lua(
...lua code here...
)lua";
