This is a free port of the original SIL (SNOBOL4 Implementation Language)
|
|
macro version of SNOBOL4 (developed at Bell Labs) with the C language as
|
|
target.
|
|
|
|
SNOBOL4, while known primarily as a string language excels at any task
|
|
involving symbolic manipulations. It provides run time typing, garbage
|
|
collection, user data types, on the fly compilation. Its primary weakness
|
|
is its simple syntax, and lack of "structured programming" constructs.
|
|
However some consider the spareness of SNOBOL4 syntax a strength when
|
|
compared to some "modern" agglomerations such as perl.
