Sorry. Yeh... that part is missing. Ok so you'll want to take the
wrapper .so and the module for the particular language you are
interested in an place it in your site include locations. I wish I could
be more specific but every distro does it differently

Perl: Copy ESL.so, ESL.pm, IVR.pm, Dispatch.pm to a location defined in
your @INC array. To see what's in @INC run perl -e "print join(\"\n\",
@INC);"

Lua: I don't do much lua so not all of this may be accurate. Make sure
lua is installed on your system (luamod wouldn't compile for me
otherwise). ESL.so appears to have to be in the same folder as your
script.

Python: Same thing. Either ESL.py and _ESL.so need to be in the same
folder or in your PYTHONPATH. You can get your path by invoking python
at the command line.

>>> import sys
>>> print sys.path
['', '/usr/lib64/python26.zip', '/usr/lib64/python2.6',
'/usr/lib64/python2.6/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/lib-tk',
'/usr/lib64/python2.6/lib-old', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/lib-dynload',
'/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages', '/usr/lib64/portage/pym']


Hopefully this will get you kickstarted.
