Lua: The Little Language That Could
I've just used `cloc`-ed Lua repo's entire code base, excluding makefile's and markdown's: 33619 lines in total of C, Lua, and C / C++ Header code; very lightweight code base.

There's a single C file you can compile really easily with `gcc -o lua luaall.c`. It compiles the whole thing in a couple of seconds!

You meant to say `onelua.c` file; indeed it's a fascinating language, I have to admit.

And that includes the test suite! Over 1/3 of that is inside the tests directory.
