#Junior-

##Hello. Currently this is being redesigned here and there will be no further modifications to this software, unless otherwise noted.

Junior- is a dialect of Lisp. I am making this project to understand more of the C language, learn how to program my own language, and learn more about functional languages.

If you are using Windows, the behaviour of the editline library is added by default.

If you are using a Mac, then the editline library already comes with your command line tools. If, however, that you receive an error based on this library, remove the line

#include <editline/history.h>

This should now work.

On a GNU/Linux (Linux) machine, you can install the editline library by using your package management tool (eg, sudo apt-get in Debian/Ubuntu), and typing install libedit-dev. This will get you up and running with editline.

####Compiling Currently, the method of compiling the current program is as follows:

If you are using a Unix/Linux machine (OS X is Unix), then run the command

cc -std=c99 -Wall bin/junior.c bin/libs/mpc.c -ledit -lm -o junior

On a Windows,

cc -std=c99 -Wall bin/junior.c bin/libs/mpc.c -o junior

Please be aware, you can change the executable to any name you'd like. However, the parameters given to the C Compiler (cc) must be added (which are OS-specific) in order to be compiled properly.

This project is made possible through Daniel Holden (orangeduck) for both writing the book Build Your Own Lisp as well as providing the MPC library which makes it very to easy to do very cool things in C.
