I'd like to thank all involved people as well as our sponsors for supporting us.



What is Parrot?



Parrot is a virtual machine aimed at running Perl6 and other dynamic languages, see parrotcode.org for more information.

Parrot 0.4.5 changes and news

  • unicode subroutine names
  • hierarchical class names finished including MMD support
  • new dotnet CLI to PIR translator
  • improved TGE code and compiler
  • APL: vector handling
  • new STM branch in the svn repository
  • the usual bugfixes and enhancements
After some pause you can grab it from CPAN.



As parrot is still in steady development we recommend that you just get the latest and best from SVN by following the directions at source.html.

Have fun!
