[Announce] Java-Version of PicoLisp
Posted: Sun Jan 02, 2011 11:06 am
The PicoLisp distribution now also contains a plain Java version.
It is called "Ersatz PicoLisp", because can run in environments where
standard PicoLisp is not available, and because it lacks some of its
features (see http://software-lab.de/ersatz/README).
Still, it implements the full PicoLisp language. It can communicate with
existing Java classes, and allows to inline Java code. For examples, see
http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Animation#Java.2FSwing
http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Image_Noise#PicoLisp
With that, the PicoLisp distribution (http://software-lab.de/picoLisp.tgz) now
contains three different versions:
1. The 64-bit version (x86-64/Linux, assembly),
2. the 32-bit version (POSIX-C)
3. and ErsatzLisp (Java)
("Mini PicoLisp" is in a separate tarball)
