sigil

-----

Sigil is a Parenscript to Javascript command line compiler and REPL.

    What is Parenscript? (from https://common-lisp.net/project/parenscript/)

    Parenscript is a translator from an extended subset of Common Lisp

    to JavaScript. Parenscript code can run almost identically on both

    the browser (as JavaScript) and server (as Common Lisp).

    Parenscript code is treated the same way as Common Lisp code,

    making the full power of Lisp macros available for

    JavaScript. This provides a web development environment that is

    unmatched in its ability to reduce code duplication and provide

    advanced metaprogramming facilities to web developers.

Usage

-----

    sigil [-i] [-I load-directory] [--eval ] [--pseval ] app.ps > app.js

Installation

------------

    $ npm install -g sigil-cli

This will automatically try to compile the executable which can then

be run with the `sigil` command. It requires from the system:

- [SBCL](http://sbcl.org/) (or some other Common Lisp implementation,

  but Sigil uses this by default)

- `make` for building the executable.

- `wget` for fetching dependencies.

Load

----

Sigil adds the 'load' command to Parenscript, so you can load macros

and other files during compilation, like (load "macros.ps"). Use -I to

specify the load paths to search.

Interactive REPL

----------------

Sigil comes with an interactive REPL (Read-Eval-Print-Loop) when

invoked with -i (or no arguments), allowing you to type and evaluate

Parenscript commands interactively.
