Re: Interpreter etc questions
Thus spake Tom Ekl?f on Thu, 22 Jul 1999:
>How would I go about programming an interpreter for a scripting language/
programming language? The only such thing I've done was, *shudder*, XProL.
Although it was fun to hack together, it wasn't really the epitome of
interpreters, or anything for that matter.
I shuddered when I saw XProL too.
>Since I seriously exhibit the same kind of lunacy as Donald R. Woods and James
M. Lyon and the people at Cat's Eye Technologies (Funges, Orthogonal, etc), I've
always wanted to write a programming language that is rather original and, if
nothing else, halfway Turing-complete. The problem is I'm not much of a
programmer and I have no sense of logic whatsoever :) (Kind of hinders my
chances, huh?)

compelled to slightly modify the code and steal it outright. Just give me some
guidelines, etc please.
Seeing as this will go off-topic fairly quickly, email me direct and we can
start talking about this. I have written a number of interpreters for DOS and
lately for Mac. None will win me design awards. I have quite a number of ideas
up my sleeve but no time up there. If you can take the ideas and run with them,
go for it!
