Add mes and mescc-tools-extra
mescc-tools-extra contains two important tools: - cp - chmod mes first builds itself from a mes 0.21 seed as used by guix, and then builds a mes 0.22 and then mes 0.22 using that created mes 0.22. It does /not/ use bootstrap.sh as we don't have a proper shell at this point, it has been manually adapted for kaem.

Subject: Mes 0.12 released
|
||||
|
||||
I am pleased to announce the release of Mes 0.12, representing 120
|
||||
commits over 20 weeks. MesCC is prototyped running on Guile and can
|
||||
now run on Mes. Performance of Mes running MesCC has been improved by
|
||||
a factor of 100; mes.c (~3000 LOC) now compiles in ~4min. Many fixes
|
||||
and enhancements make that now also TinyCC parses (~1.5h) and compiles
|
||||
(~20min) with Mes+MesCC (Guile+MesCC takes ~2min).
|
||||
|
||||
Special thanks go to Ricardo Wurmus for sharing the recursive macro
|
||||
expand perspective and starting work on that, to Han-Wen Nienhuys for
|
||||
his sharp `Ah, so you skipped SICP chapter 3' remark and to rain1 for
|
||||
their continuous help on #bootstrapping and their `let's only expand
|
||||
global variables' insight.
|
||||
|
||||
* About
|
||||
|
||||
Mes[0] aims to create full source bootstrapping for GuixSD[1] as
|
||||
part of the bootstrappable builds[2] project.
|
||||
|
||||
It currently consists of a mutual self-hosting [close to Guile-]
|
||||
Scheme interpreter prototype in C and a Nyacc-based C compiler in
|
||||
[Guile] Scheme. This C prototype will be simplified to be
|
||||
transpiled by M2-Planet[3].
|
||||
|
||||
The Scheme interpreter prototype (mes.c) has a Garbage Collector,
|
||||
a library of loadable Scheme modules-- notably Dominique Boucher's
|
||||
LALR[4], pre-R6RS portable syntax-case[5] with R7RS ellipsis, Matt
|
||||
Wette's Nyacc[6], Guile's PEG[7] --and test suite just barely
|
||||
enough to support a simple REPL (repl.mes) and simple C-compiler
|
||||
MesCC (mescc.mes).
|
||||
|
||||
MesCC can compile a modified TinyCC[8] that is close to being
|
||||
self-hosting. A GNU Gcc-compiled tcc is known[9] to compile GCC.
|
||||
|
||||
Mes is inspired by The Maxwell Equations of Software: LISP-1.5[10]
|
||||
-- John McCarthy page 13, GNU Guix's source/binary packaging
|
||||
transparency and Jeremiah Orians's stage0[11] ~300 byte self-hosting
|
||||
hex assembler.
|
||||
|
||||
* Download
|
||||
|
||||
git clone https://gitlab.com/janneke/mes
|
||||
|
||||
wget https://gitlab.com/janneke/mes/repository/archive.tar.gz?ref=v0.12 -O mes-0.12.tar.gz
|
||||
|
||||
Mes runs from the source tree and can also be built, packaged and
|
||||
installed in Guix[SD] by the usual
|
||||
|
||||
guix package -f guix.scm
|
||||
|
||||
* Changes in 0.12 since 0.11
|
||||
** Core
|
||||
*** Mes can now run Nyacc (0.80.42) to compile itself in ~4min (~3000 LOC).
|
||||
*** Mes now recursively expands global variables per top level statement.
|
||||
*** Mes now recursively expands macros per top level statement.
|
||||
*** Mes now boots from MES_BOOT (default: module/mes/boot-0.scm).
|
||||
*** Mes now has a full Scheme reader in C again.
|
||||
This gives a 10x-20x performance improvement and increases the
|
||||
bootstrap footprint by 160 LOC.
|
||||
*** Mes reader now supports older abbreviated character forms
|
||||
#\bel, #\bs, #\ht and #\vt.
|
||||
*** 3 new functions
|
||||
equal2?, memq, core:write.
|
||||
** Language
|
||||
*** Mes now has an incremental Scheme semantics test suite with 71 small tests.
|
||||
*** Variable names can now have ticks.
|
||||
*** Mes now evaluates expresions of COND only once.
|
||||
*** srfi-9 records have been reimplemented.
|
||||
*** #\page is now whitespace.
|
||||
*** #<eof> is no longer a character.
|
||||
*** 2 new macros
|
||||
define-macro*, with-fluids.
|
||||
*** 9 new functions
|
||||
dirname, last, reverse-list->string, setenv, string-drop-right,
|
||||
string-fold, string-fold-right, string-null?, write.
|
||||
** MesCC
|
||||
**** 9 new functions
|
||||
chmod, getopt_long, ferror, itoab, longjmp, qsort, setenv, setjmp, strtol.
|
||||
**** 2 new header files
|
||||
endian.h, sys/signal.h.
