Leo -- The Jako compiler spits stuff out from Perl.
I'm writing some new experimental stuff in PIR directly. I'm curious about other stuff, too. I don't see any of the languages/imcc/t/**/*.t files doing anything with the ord op, and when I try to use it as .local int c .local str s and then c = ord(s) or ord(c, s) in my .imc file, neither works. Do I need to do magic to use any old op I want? Regards, -- Gregor On Sun, 2003-10-12 at 11:42, Leopold Toetsch wrote: > Gregor N.
