# Joy interpreter in Nim

> Simple pleasures are the best.

This interpreter written in Nim is part of the Thun project, which
includes interpreters written in Python and Prolog, and some explorations
towards compilers for Joy written in Prolog.


## Dependencies

- Nim functional programming library https://github.com/vegansk/nimfp
- Pure Nim (i.e. not GMP) BigInts library https://github.com/def-/nim-bigints
- ... 

If you have `nimble` installed:

    nimble install bigints nimfp 


## Building

To build an executable just run:

    make

This will copy the `implementations/defs.txt` file into the Nim project and
compile the `joy` executable.


## TODOs:

- ctrl-c should exit cleanly
- graphics?
- `words` and `help`?
- How to integrate docs?
