Blocktalk can now be easily installed via Rubygems:
gem sources -a http://gems.github.com (if not done yet)
sudo gem install bakkdoor-blocktalk
You can then simply run blocktalk from the shell via
blocktalk sourcefile.bt
To look at some debug information (e.g. the AST, the generated ruby code etc.) type:
blocktalk sourcefile.bt –debug
or
blocktalk sourcefile.bt –ruby (to only show the generated ruby code)
Feel free to play around with it, check out the examples in the examples folder, if you want to get a start.
Would love to hear some feedback from anyone who’s interested, since this is my first attempt to language design
