* The Sex language
|
|
Sex is a S-expressions language, which transpiles to C.
|
|
|
|
* Compilation and usage
|
|
Sex is written in Chicken Scheme, so first you'll need to get yourself
|
|
a Chicken.
|
|
|
|
It also has a couple of Chicken deps.
|
|
|
|
** Install Chicken Eggs
|
|
By the way, there's a way to make Chicken install eggs non-globally. Refer to
|
|
the documentation for more info:
|
|
https://wiki.call-cc.org/man/5/Extension%20tools#changing-the-repository-location
|
|
|
|
~chicken-install fmt tree brev-separate~
|
|
|
|
** Compilation
|
|
~make~
|
|
|
|
** Usage
|
|
You'll also need a C compiler, so pick any.
|
|
#+begin_src
|
|
cat hello-world.sex | sexc > hello_world.c
|
|
cc hello_world.c -o hello_world
|
|
#+end_src
|
|
|
|
* Features
|
|
** Full C interoperability
|
|
Just ~(include "Your/Favourite/Library.h")~ and use it as you would
|
|
have is C.
|
|
|
|
For hardcore fans of traditional Lisp naming convention,
|
|
Sex offers automatic unkebabification of all symbols, i.e. no more
|
|
ugly ~GL_ARRAY_BUFFER~s in your code, they may be writted in their
|
|
proper form: ~GL-ARRAY-BUFFER~.
|
|
|
|
** Use an established environment for development
|
|
As Sex is S-expressions, you always have Emacs with paredit as your
|
|
best option.
|
|
|
|
** COMING SOON: Polymorhpism
