lintc
---------
This is my compiler for my programming language, LINT.
It is written in Rust and uses a REPL loop (i think).
What is LINT?
-----------------
LINT (LINT Is Not Tal) is a programming language for the Uxn virtual machine which is a computer platform intended to run as software to reuse/recycle older devices.
The only way to program in it originally was with Uxntal, an assembly language. I thought this was too hard and created LINT.
Latest release and setup
----------------------------
Clone this repository to get the latest development version.
If you'd like the point release (stable) version, run this command below:
git reset --hard efc5335d5fbfed949aaa4949744f200ffdf2fdc6
This will reset your git tree back to the latest version that is stable.
You will then want to run build.sh to build it.
You will also want to download the accompanying macros repository and place it in the same directory as the lintc binary or your working directory.
