* Package name : nqp Version : 0.1~2011.09 Upstream Author : The NQP Team * URL : https://github.com/perl6/nqp * License : Artistic-2.0 Programming Lang: C, Perl Description : Not Quite Perl compiler Not Quite Perl is a compiler for quickly generating PIR routines from Perl6-like code. The key feature of NQP is that it's designed to be a very small compiler (as compared with, say, perl6 or Rakudo) and is focused on being a high-level way to create compilers and libraries for virtual machines (such as the Parrot Virtual Machine). . Unlike a full-fledged implementation of Perl 6, NQP strives to have as small a runtime footprint as it can, while still providing a Perl 6 object model and regular expression engine for the virtual machine. Note that this is needed by the upcoming version of rakudo. Also, nqp needs parrot v3.8.0, yet to be packaged for Debian. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
