In it I explained the relationship between existing Perl 6 projects and Pugs (a Perl 6 implementation). I have also listed some resources for people who'd like to help. Feedbacks are most welcome!"


Exegeses, Apocalypses, Apocrypha, oh my.

Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas any more.

great project, and even better title.

Pugs now back-ending to Parrot

ajs on 2005-03-28T17:12:37

In a recent checkin, Pugs gained the rudimentary ability to back-end to Parrot.

For those who don't understand the roadmap, here, Pugs is the first step toward a complete Perl 6 compiler. Perl 6, however, requires a parser that is written in Perl 6. Because of this, back-ending to Parrot is an important step for Pugs, as it will allow the creation of the final Perl 6 compiler, written in Perl 6 and compiled down to Parrot byte-code.

Of course, in its current state, Pugs is incapable of this, but it's getting closer every day.
