how to execute a .lua file in torch?

[Ethan Gao]

Hello guys, I'm totally new to Torch. I have installed torch on my MAC, but having problem to run the .lua file. On tutorial, it says use $ th file.lua  command , but where should I put this file.lua then torch can find it?

Many thanks.

dofile 'file1.lua' or paths.dofile('file1.lua')

I tried dofile 'test.lua' , but it says -bash: dofile: command not found

It has to be in the current directory. You might want to check a linux shell tutorial first, e.g. try http://linuxcommand.org/
