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?
