# GameLisp

**GameLisp** is a scripting language for [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org) game development.

To get started, take a look at the [homepage](https://gamelisp.rs). Please note that GameLisp

currently requires the latest version of **nightly** Rust.

*Update, March 2022: My game project is on hold, meaning that GameLisp is not currently under 

active maintenance. Due to [issue #36](https://github.com/fleabitdev/glsp/issues/36), the `glsp`

crate will fail to compile when using nightly Rust toolchains newer than 30th September 2021.

Apologies for any inconvenience!*

## Contributing

Bug reports and pull requests are welcome. All contributions submitted for inclusion in the work 

will be dual-licensed as described below, with no additional terms or conditions.

## Roadmap

Short-term goals for the language, in descending order of priority:

- Fix [issue #36](https://github.com/fleabitdev/glsp/issues/36)

- Add test suite

- Add syntax-highlighting for more text editors

- Report the location of mismatched parentheses when parsing

- Work off some technical debt

    - Make gc timing more consistent when `"unsafe-internals"` is disabled

    - Optimize `forn`, collections, objects, and the write-barrier

    - Forbid names like `iter` from being bound as local variables

- Add built-in functions for debugging

    - Convenient functions for running a REPL in-game

    - Some level of support for hotloading

- Audit the crate's integer conversions and overflow (e.g. `usize as u32` casts)

- Add multiple-value operations for the `DequeOps` trait, like `set_slice` and `starts_with`

- Add bindings to the `regex` and `chrono` crates, behind feature flags

- Experiment with reflection, raw classes or metaclasses, as potential replacements for mixins

  and classmacros
