noob questions;

bobdotexe:
I've wanted to learn C for a while; but Lua looked easier;
So what do I need to get started, I know like a sdk or something,
but what about library or something.

P.s the only programming I've ever done before is in basic, so....

can some one help?

LambdaCalculus:
This isn't a general programming site. Try googling for Lua information.

Chronon:
The manual has some information about the Lua plugin, including a couple of links to Lua resources and exceptions/additions to Lua support in Rockbox.

But what better way to learn to program then for an mp3 player.  So close to your body.  So simple.  So I wish some noob programming questions were welcomed here.

Presumably you're saying this without actually having tried programming an MP3 player.  Let me suggest to you that the reason we go through such trouble to use the sim instead of actual targets is that running code on a device is a pain in the ass.  Pretty much anything is better to learn or test on then an mp3 player.
