Bug#354272: ITP: gwydion-dylan-dev -- Gwydion Dylan Development Tools
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Charles Stevenson <core@bokeoa.com>
* Package name : gwydion-dylan-dev
Version : 2.4.1
Upstream Author : Gwydion Dylan Hackers

Description : Gwydion Dylan Development Tools
CMU's Gwydion Dylan provides d2c, a Dylan-to-C batch compiler. It produces
fairly efficient output but requires strange incantations to compile even
simple programs. Tools for interfacing with C are included. (The Mindy
bytecode interpreter is available as a separate package.) If you're really
excited about writing Dylan programs for Linux--and don't mind the
inconveniences of d2c--these are the tools to use. If you prefer a mature
development environment, try another language.
.
This package contains the tools necessary to recompile d2c. They
include a LISP to Dylan translator, a parser generator, and various
tools for maintaining the build tree. This package also contains a
few general-purpose development utilities written in Dylan.
Orphaned for too long and disappeared. Upstream requested my help to
bring the package up to snuff and get it back into the pool.
