ParTcl

A from scratch implementation of Tcl on Parrot.

To build the tcl interpreter, first build parrot. From the top level parrot directory:

perl Configure.pl && make

Then, build the PGE library: (also from the top level parrot directory)

(cd compilers/pge && make)

Then, type make in this directory. This will generate the file tcl.pbc which can then be used to run tcl programs.

Note - due to a bug in the current parrot implementation, you must be in the root development directory.

./parrot languages/tcl/tcl.pbc foo.tcl

Examples

To run an example, change to the examples, and type make for instructions. Running examples from here automatically handles cd'ing to the proper directory to run.

Test Suite

To run the test suite, type "make test". Note - if any tests fail, try setting the environment variable TEST_PROG_ARGS to -G and retry.

If the tests now pass, there's a GC bug that needs to be reported to the perl6-internals list.
