Here's how you do it:

Open notepad and make a project, you don't need to type out anything.

Once you have it, save it as... And this is really important, name it whatever you want but make sure that the name ends with ".lua", otherwise it won't convert upon saving. You also need to make sure that you are saving it as "All files " and not just as a .txt which is default. All of this is done in the window that appears once you choose to save.
