Lisk

This Lisk project is the successor to the old project started by Chris Done at the end of 2010. It used haskell-src-exts’s AST and pretty printer in order to convert from Lisk to Haskell. Chris has given his blessing to re-use the name for a new effort :-)

Goals

100% native compatibility/interop with Haskell (a la Erlang's LFE).

Current Status

Nothing but air. Some planning, some conversation, not much else.

Wish List

Command line tools: lisk, liskc, liski

1. Parse *.lsk files
2. Convert to Haskell AST
3. Compile in-memory code
4. Save as Haskell object files

Interpreter:

1. Read input
2. Parse Lisk strings
3. Convert to Haskell AST
4. Compile in-memory code
5. Evaluate code
6. Print results
