Parrots are flying

Dan writes "We have the first language that targets Parrot as its back end. Gregor Purdy whipped up a small language he calls Jako[1] that compiles to Parrot assembly code. I've checked the compiler and a test program into the CVS repository, in the little_languages directory, for all to see and fiddle with. Sync up and give it a whirl!

[1]Jako is one of the species of African parrots, also called the "gray parrot""

And, in case anyone cares, that parrot is called "Kasuku" in Swahili.
