Pail is an esoteric programming language based on pairs; just as Lisp

stands for *LIS*t *P*rocessing, Pail stands for *PAI*r *L*anguage.

This is the reference distribution for Pail.

The Pail programming language is documented in the literate Haskell

source code of its reference interpreter, `Pail.lhs`, which can be

found in the `src/Language` subdirectory:

*   [src/Language/Pail.lhs](src/Language/Pail.lhs)

The literate Haskell was written as if it were Markdown, so you might

(or might not) have luck looking at it as such in a browsing interface:

*   [Language.Pail](src/Language/)

Some tests, in [Falderal][] format, which might clarify the intended

behaviour, can be found in `Pail.md` in the `tests` subdirectory:

*   [tests/Pail.md](tests/Pail.md)

These files are distributed under a 3-clause BSD license.  See the file

`LICENSE` for the license text.

There is also a demonstration of running the Pail interpreter in

a web browser, by compiling the reference implementation to Javascript

with the [Haste][] compiler.  You can try this locally by building

`demo/pail.js` and opening `demo/pail.html` in a web browser.
