Important User Notice\n\nThis repository contains a partial Shen language implementation, aimed at developers working on Shen itself, **not** a full version ready for general programming use.\n\n\u003e For beginners, it is **highly** recommended that they start first with the [main website](https://shenlanguage.org) and to join [the mailing list](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/qilang).\n\nTo write and run Shen programs, please use one of these user-friendly options:\n\n- **Windows Users**: Download pre-compiled [SBCL port binaries](https://shenlanguage.org/download.html).\n- **Direct from Source**: Non-Windows users can obtain the [latest sources](https://shenlanguage.org/download.html) and run `(load \"install.lsp\")` in an SBCL REPL.\n- **Shen/Scheme**: Explore [Shen/Scheme](https://github.com/tizoc/shen-scheme), available as binaries or buildable from source.\n\nThese resources provide complete Shen environments for programming. \n\n---\n\n[![Current Release](https://img.shields.io/badge/release-39.0-blue.svg)](https://github.com/Shen-Language/shen-sources/releases)\n\n# Shen Sources\n\n\u003ca href=\"http://www.shenlanguage.org\"\u003e\n  \u003cimg src=\"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Shen-Language/shen-sources/master/assets/shen.png\" align=\"right\"\u003e\n\u003c/a\u003e\n\nThis repository hosts a slightly modified version of the sources for the kernel of [Mark Tarver's](http://www.marktarver.com/) Shen programming language.\n\nNote that this repository does not contain a runnable implementation of Shen, just the language kernel code that can be used by porters to create a full implementation of the language.\n\n\u003e **NOTE** To obtain a runnable version, consider the reference implementation from the [main website](https://shenlanguage.org/download.html) or [Shen/Scheme](https://github.com/tizoc/shen-scheme).\n\nDocumentation for the Shen Language is the [shendoc](http://shenlanguage.org/shendoc.htm) hosted on the [main website](http://www.shenlanguage.org).\n\n## Generating Kλ\n\n\u003e **IMPORTANT** This is not required when downloading the [releases](https://github.com/Shen-Language/shen-cl/releases) (recommended).\n\nShen is a self-hosted language, so its kernel implementation is written in Shen. Building Kλ from the Shen sources requires an executable built from the previous release of Shen.\n\n### Using Pre-Built Shen/Scheme (Recommended)\n\nA prebuilt copy of a reference implementation can be pulled down by running `make fetch`. The executable `shen-scheme` will be dropped under the `shen-scheme/bin` folder. Render the Kλ by running `make klambda` or just `make`.\n\n### Using Another Executable\n\nUsing your own executable is the same as above, except you override the `Shen` variable like this: `make klambda Shen=\"/path/to/shen\"`.\n\n## Releases\n\nRelease packages containing the pre-built Kλ and the test suite are created using `make release`. Archives appear under the `release/` folder in both `zip` and `tar.gz` format.\n\nPackages can be created for any version, but when uploading to the releases page, make sure to have built the specific tagged revision.\n\n```\nmake pure\ngit checkout shen-39.0\nmake fetch\nmake klambda\nmake release\n```\n\nBuilding release packages on Windows currently requires the [7-zip](http://www.7-zip.org/) command `7z` to be accessible from the command line.\n\n## Porting Shen\n\nRefer to `doc/` and [the wiki](https://github.com/Shen-Language/wiki/wiki) for instructions on building a certifiable port of Shen. If you get your port to run the standard test suite successfully, let us know on [the mailing list](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/qilang) and your port will be certified.\n\nHappy Programming!\n\n神\n","funding_links":[],"categories":["Shen"],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2FShen-Language%2Fshen-sources","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2FShen-Language%2Fshen-sources","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2FShen-Language%2Fshen-sources/lists"}
