---------- - ------------------------------
Mooncached - the moon on a stick (of RAM) -
---------- - ------------------------------

Mooncached is a tiny memcached server written in Lua. You can use it
to store and retrieve chunks of data from your applications.

Installation
------------
Mooncached is mostly standalone - it just depends on LuaSocket, which
is available in most BSD and Linux distributions, and from its site
at http://luasocket.luaforge.net/ .

Configuration
-------------
Just run mooncached.lua. It listens on port 11211 (the default
memcached port). You can use Squish
(http://matthewwild.co.uk/projects/squish ) to produce a standalone
"mooncached" script.

Usage
-----
Any Memcached client library should work with Mooncached, see
http://code.google.com/p/memcached/wiki/Clients for a list.

5.1 itself.
