Bug#454591: O: icon -- Libraries for Icon, a high-level programming language
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
The current maintainer of icon, Christian Hudon <chrish@debian.org>,
is apparently not active anymore. Therefore, I orphan this package now.
Maintaining a package requires time and skills. Please only adopt this
package if you are *sure* you will have enough time and attention to
work on it.
If you want to be the new maintainer, please see
http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html#howto-o for detailed
instructions how to adopt a package properly.

Description: Libraries for Icon, a high-level programming language
Ideal for both complex nonnumerical applications and for situations where
users need quick solutions with a minimum of programming effort, Icon is a
high-level, general purpose programming language with a syntax similar to
Pascal and C. Its applications include: rapid prototyping, analyzing
natural languages, generating computer programs, and artificial
intelligence. (From the back cover of the book "The Icon Programming
Language," by Griswold and Griswold.)
.
This package contains the Icon program library, a library of Icon
procedures and programs contributed by Icon users.

Description: Interpreter for Icon, a high-level programming language
Ideal for both complex nonnumerical applications and for situations where
users need quick solutions with a minimum of programming effort, Icon is a
high-level, general purpose programming language with a syntax similar to
Pascal and C. Its applications include: rapid prototyping, analyzing
natural languages, generating computer programs, and artificial

Language," by Griswold and Griswold.)
.
This package contains the Icon translator, which converts Icon source code
into `ucode` that can then be executed with the help of the iconx program.

Description: Compiler for Icon, a high-level programming language
Ideal for both complex nonnumerical applications and for situations where
users need quick solutions with a minimum of programming effort, Icon is a
high-level, general purpose programming language with a syntax similar to
Pascal and C. Its applications include: rapid prototyping, analyzing
natural languages, generating computer programs, and artificial
intelligence. (From the back cover of the book "The Icon Programming
Language," by Griswold and Griswold.)
.
This package contains the Icon compiler. It generates programs that
generally run faster than those of the icont/iconx Icon interpreter. On the
other hand, the Icon compiler takes much longer to compile programs and is
more memory-hungry than the iconx/icont pair. As such, the compiler is
probably only useful to speed up the execution of large Icon programs once
they are fully developed and debugged.

Description: Executor for Icon, a high-level programming language
Ideal for both complex nonnumerical applications and for situations where
users need quick solutions with a minimum of programming effort, Icon is a
high-level, general purpose programming language with a syntax similar to
Pascal and C. Its applications include: rapid prototyping, analyzing
natural languages, generating computer programs, and artificial
intelligence. (From the back cover of the book "The Icon Programming
Language," by Griswold and Griswold.)
.
This package contains the Icon executor, iconx, which is needed to execute
interpreted Icon programs. If you are starting from Icon source code (as
opposed to precompiled `ucode' files), you will also need the icont
package, which converts your Icon source into a program that iconx can
execute.
