The Blue Programming Language 1.6.10 (Default branch)
Blue is a unique multi-purpose dynamic programming language. The minimalistic syntax is intuitive, easy to learn, and adapts to a broad range of programming styles and applications. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
This release adds the foreach method to functions, allowing functions to iterate over a number of arguments. It adds the sys.clone and sys.copy functions to support prototype-based programming. This release also contains some minor bugfixes. Image

NAME

       twig - tree-manipulation language

SYNOPSIS

       twig [ -sASC ] [ -w suffix ] file.mt

DESCRIPTION

       Twig  converts  a tree-specification scheme consisting of pattern-action rules with associated costs into C functions that can be called to
       manipulate input trees.	The C functions first find a minimum-cost covering of an input tree using a dynamic programming algorithm and then
       execute	the  actions  associated with the patterns used in the covering.  The tree-specification scheme may allow several coverings for an
       input tree, but the dynamic programming algorithm resolves any ambiguities by selecting a cheapest covering.

       The input file containing the tree-specification scheme must have the suffix Twig produces two output files: walker.c,  which  becomes  the
       source file for the tree matcher, and symbols.h, which contains the definitions for the node and label symbols used in the source file.

       To build walker.c, twig uses an internal template file, by default one appropriate for use with fprintf(2).

       The options are

       -A	  Use a template file for ANSI/POSIX source files.

       -C	  Use a template file for files that use libc's print(2) routines.

       -S	  Use a template file for files that use fprintf(2).

       -s	  Do not produce a symbols.h file.

       -w suffix  Use the template file /sys/lib/twig/walker.suffix.

FILES

       /sys/lib/twig
	      System area for template files.

SOURCE

       /sys/src/cmd/twig

BUGS

       When tree matching fails, the debugging output is cryptic.
