lci

lci is a LOLCODE (http://lolcode.org) interpreter written in C and is designed to be correct, portable, fast, and precisely documented.

• Correct: Every effort has been made to test lci's conformance to the LOLCODE language specification. Unit tests come packaged with the lci source code.

• Portable: lci follows the widely ported ANSI C specification allowing it to compile on a broad range of systems.

• Fast: Much effort has gone into producing simple and efficient code whenever possible to the extent that the above points are not compromized.

• Precisely documented: lci uses Doxygen to generate literate code documentation, browsable here.

Prerequisites

1. You must have CMake installed (http://www.cmake.org).

• If you're using a Linux distro with package managment CMake should be in your repositories.

1. Python 2.7+ or Python 2.x with the argparse module installed.

Installation: The Easy Way on Linux or OSX

Run the script install.py. Note that

$ ./install.py -h

will display a list of relavent install options. For example, to install lci to the directory /home/foo/opt, run:

$ ./install.py --prefix="/home/foo/opt"

Installation: The More Involved Way on Linux or OSX

1. Configure lci using CMake. This can be as simple as opening up the terminal, navigating to the directory containing lci and typing:

$ cmake .

You can also provide any other argument to the CMake configuration process you'd like. To enable Memory testing turn the PERFORM_MEM_TESTS option on like so:

$ cmake -DPERFORM_MEM_TESTS:BOOL=ON .

You can also use the ccmake command or the CMake GUI if you prefer. See the cmake documentation for more details.

1. Build the project:

$ make

1. Install

$ make install

1. (Optional) Build documentation:

$ make doc

1. (Optional) Run tests:

$ ctest
