However, development proceeds apace in my fork - now the canon. :)
This is the repo for the Mesh language project. Mesh was created by Basil Hosmer.
NOTE: Mesh is pre-Alpha at present, pretty much undocumented, and in general not that much fun to explore, yet. For more information on the project and its timeline, check out the FAQ.
That said:
To build the Mesh compiler and interactive shell from source you will need the following:
- Java JDK 1.6+
- Apache Ant 1.8+
Compiling the Mesh compiler and REPL shell is done using Ant
$ ant
Once you have successfully compiled Mesh you will be able to run an interacive shell and also run the included sample applications.
To launch the interactive shell
$ ./bin/shell
>
The Mesh scripts found in the src/script directory are mostly demos, and can be run from the shell, for example as follows:
$ ./bin/shell
> $load prballs
To get a list of commands in the shell run "$help"
$ ./bin/shell
> $help
