hello there, I know this mailing list is about developing cegcc, while my questions are more about *using* cegcc, but I'll try anyway :-) basically, I'm trying to find a way to "smooth out" the process of porting an application that already have a Configure-type script (the kind of script which g

Porting parrot on PDA

hello people! I'm really interested in porting parrot to PDA (well, PocketPC at least). some days ago I stumbled upon CeGCC (a cross compiler for PocketPC), which is basically a windows port of gcc (both cygwin and mingw32 flavours) that produces ARM executable code. I started playing with i

splat operator and context

I was trying to implement unary * (list flatten or "splat" operator) in pugs yesterday, and I came to the conclusion that I really don't grok how context works in Perl6 (I also really don't grok Haskell, but this is another story...). if I understand correctly, all these are equivalents: my @
