Hi,
It has been a while since the last release (OpenAxiom-1.0.1).
I'm planning to release OpenAxiom-1.1.0 on Thursday Febraury 14, 2008.
New functionalities include:
(*) many bug fixes [yes, we can count them as functionalities ;-p];
(*) better support for domain definitions (now Rep definition
is close to Aldor's)
(*) support for union-like domains;
(*) support for unevaluated arguments of arbitrary types;
(*) support for batch processing. OpenAxiom-1.1.0 will be he first
from the Axiom family to support batch processing:
(1) you can use as it an interpreter, just like Python, Perl
or Perl;
(2) you can invoke it as compiler, as you would for GCC
(*) support for highlighting
Because of these distinctive functionalities, it has been decided
to rename the driver from `axiom' to `open-axiom' to signal these traits.
For batch processing, here is how you can an OpenAxiom script:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp/open-axiom/> cat a.input
#!/usr/local/bin/open-axiom --script
fib n ==
n = 0 => 1
n = 1 => 1
fib(n-1) + fib(n-2)
fib 5
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp/open-axiom/> chmod +x a.input
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp/open-axiom/> ./a.input
Feel free to replace /usr/local with your installation prefix.
I'll be working on ironing out remaining issues, but it basically
works.
Enjoy.
