Well, I was going to make sure I noted the progress of the Parrot Project, but I've been rather lax about that. So, here's a quick update.
- 0.02 is released. Does integer, string, and numeric operations, and is generally rather nifty, if limited.
- Simon's working on variable support. We should have them soon
- Subroutine calls (at the lowest level, at least) are working
- Multiple interpreter support should be in very soon, perhaps within the next day or so
- Multiplesimultaneous interpreters should be in soon after that. Yay, threads.
- We should be able to get some system info soon
- I/O ops, at least in their most basic forms, should be next on the list
I'm really pretty happy with how things are going so far, though I know some of the design decisions I've made aren't quite to some folk's liking. That's OK. :)
If anyone's got a good, licensable-for-parrot, bigint/bifgloat library, I'd be rather thrilled...
