    Last month I worked on the language ABI (Application Binary Interface). This is where I have made an effort to make modules buildable and exportable (into dynamic shared libraries) to the language interpreter. I call the build environment for these modules the SDK (software development kit). It is a Meson project that supports not just Unix based platforms but also Windows. Before this month, one could only export functions in modules, but now one can include classes also. For me this felt very good, as I would expect of a language to support as much in the SDK as possible of the original script-language data types. Here is a link to an example module library written in C that can be compiled for export into the language interpreter: https://github.com/Ricardicus/ric-script/blob/master/src/sdk_lib/ext_lib.c
  • Building my own programming language using C

    I host the source code here at GitHub. There are links to documentation and even an environment where you can test the interpreter on some samples to be found in the README. If you feel like this is an interesting C-project I'd appreciate the dopamine kick of a star over there at the github platform.

    Continued work on my interpreter for [ric-script](https://github.com/Ricardicus/ric-script) which is an interpreted dynamically typed and lazy evaluated language. Imagine Javascript without semicolon and Python without the indentation thing. I build the syntax tree using yacc. Here is a [code sample](https://ric-script-u5ep8.ondigitalocean.app/doc/syntaxwalkthrough.html#class-declarations) where I build an RPN calculator in it. I’d appreciate the dopamine kick of a star if you find the project interesting.

    I continuing with building my first programming language. It is an interpreted dynamically typed and lazy evaluated language. It is like a merge of python and javascript, imagine Python except the focus on indentation. I build the syntax tree using yacc. Here is a code sample where I build an RPN calculator in it. The source repository is here, I’d appreciate the dopamine kick of a star if you like it.

  • Seed7 version 2023-04-22 released on GitHub and SF

    No. You can see at GitHub that I update Seed7 quite often. Approximately once a month I do a release and this release is announced at r/seed7 and here.
  • Question about installation
    1 project | /r/seed7 | 25 Apr 2023
    The packages are not updated so often. So you are more up-to-date with the releases (or even more up-to-date by pulling from GitHub).
  • Exercism related questions

    I committed a corresponding change to GitHub (Support syntax statements without $ (dollar)).
  • Seed7 version 2023-03-05 released on GitHub and SF

  • Have you heard about the Seed7 programming language?
    3 projects | /r/pascal | 23 Feb 2023
    Yes, I am regularly working on improvements for Seed7. The changes are checked in at GitHub (see here for the list of commits) and once a month I do a release which is announced at r/seed7.
  • Core-js maintainer complains open source is broken
    3 projects | /r/programming | 15 Feb 2023
    It all depends on the circumstances behind. In the beginning the core-js maintainer had no family and now he has. When I released Seed7 I already had a family. It was clear that my job had to support my family and my hobby (GitHub link).
  • Seed7 version 2022-06-26 released on GitHub and SF

    Syntax highlighting for the Nano editor has been added. Many thanks to Duke Normandin for creating seed7.nanorc.
