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: GNU Mes 0.17 released
|
||||
|
||||
<#secure method=pgpmime mode=sign>
|
||||
We are delighted to announce the release of GNU Mes 0.17, representing
|
||||
64 commits over 6 weeks.
|
||||
|
||||
Mes is now an official GNU package and we have bootstrapped gcc-4.7.4
|
||||
for x86-linux with a reduced binary seed (i.e., without regular toolchain).
|
||||
|
||||
Next targets:
|
||||
|
||||
- upstream the x86 Mes bootstrap to GuixSD
|
||||
- create a x86_64 Mes C Lib, see if that is is enough to bootstrap x86_64
|
||||
- reduce the 1MB ASCII M1 seed to ~5000 LOC/~100KB of M2 source
|
||||
- create a plan for Geesh and Gash and use them to reduce the
|
||||
bootstrap binary dependencies
|
||||
- and/or otherwise reduce the bootstrap binary dependencies
|
||||
|
||||
Packages are available from Guix's wip-bootstrap branch.
|
||||
|
||||
* About
|
||||
|
||||
GNU Mes[0] aims to help create full source bootstrapping for GNU/Linux
|
||||
distributions such as GuixSD[1] as part of the bootstrappable builds[2]
|
||||
effort.
|
||||
|
||||
It consists of a mutual self-hosting Scheme interpreter written in
|
||||
~5,000 LOC of simple C and a Nyacc-based C compiler written in Scheme.
|
||||
This mes.c is being simplified[3] to be transpiled by M2-Planet[4].
|
||||
|
||||
The Scheme interpreter (mes.c) has a Garbage Collector, a library of
|
||||
loadable Scheme modules-- notably Dominique Boucher's LALR[5],
|
||||
Pre-R6RS portable syntax-case[6] with R7RS ellipsis, Matt Wette's
|
||||
Nyacc[7] --and test suite just barely enough to support a simple REPL
|
||||
and simple C-compiler: MesCC.
|
||||
|
||||
Mes+MesCC can compile an only lightly patched TinyCC[8] that is
|
||||
self-hosting. Using this tcc and the Mes C library we now have a
|
||||
reduced-binary-seed bootstrap for the gnutools triplet: glibc-2.2.5,
|
||||
binutils-2.20.1, gcc-4.7.4.
|
||||
|
||||
Mes is inspired by The Maxwell Equations of Software: LISP-1.5[9] --
|
||||
John McCarthy page 13, GNU Guix's source/binary packaging transparency
|
||||
and Jeremiah Orians's stage0[10] ~500 byte self-hosting hex assembler.
|
||||

||||
* Download
|
||||
|
||||
git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/mes.git

|
||||
|
||||
[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
|
||||
.sig suffix) is intact. First, be sure to download both the .sig file
|
||||
and the corresponding tarball. Then, run a command like this:
|
||||
|
||||
gpg --verify mes-0.17.tar.gz.sig
|
||||
|
||||
If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
|
||||
then run this command to import it:
|
||||
|
||||
gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 1A858392E331EAFDB8C27FFBF3C1A0D9C1D65273
|
||||
|
||||
and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.
|
||||
|
||||
Mes runs from the source tree and can also be built, packaged and
|
||||
installed in Guix[SD] from a git checkout by running
|
||||
|
||||
guix package -f .guix.scm
