I was thinking about adding OpenComputers into my modpack to see the differences between it and ComputerCraft.
Just wanting to know what lua 5.2 adds that 5.1 does not.
Like, if I have lua 5.1 and lua 5.2 on my pc (Not talking about minecraft, talking about compiling with Cygwin), could I be able to paste some 5.1 lua into the 5.2 console and still have it run normally?
also I have heard there's a lua 5.3 now, what got added/removed in that?
I only understand updates if it is in big bold letters like this.

See here, I guess.
If you paste Lua 5.1 specific code into a 5.2 environment, or vice versa, then certainly it's going to have problems. Whether a given script contains code "specific" to a given version of Lua depends on how it's written. Your average "hello world!" script, for example, is unlikely to encounter any difficulties.
