I think I know the pas2lua you are talking about - created by jdarling 
(www.eonclash.com)? who lurks in the www.pascalgamedevelopment.com site...
I haven't used that myself, but I did make my own unit with helper 
functions, and a class that encapsulates a lua state so I can easily call 
lua procedures, etc. and also call Delphi procedures from Lua.
