= Yatc - Yet Another Tcl Clone

** THIS SOFTWARE IS EXPERIMENTAL AND ISN'T PROBABLY READY FOR PRODUCTION USE **

**Yatc** is a relatively tiny and ultra-portable virtual machine for running scripts written in Yatc - a scripting language heavily mocking Tcl and Ruby. The main goals of this project are:

[squares]
- to create an extendable scripting language that would allow writing extensions for embedded systems
- to make a virtual machine for that language that can be really easily embedded into a commercial product without any licensing problems
- to make that virtual machine as portable as possible

== Building

You'll need:
- macOS, Linux or FreeBSD
- GCC or clang
- A full installation of KDE Plasma 4 or 5 if you want the KDE frontend

Run this command to build:

[source,bash]
----
$ sh build.sh
----

This will produce ``yatc`` - the standalone intepreter - and ``libyatc.a`` - the static library containing the embeddable version of the interpreter.

== Docs

See the wiki for this project, I guess?
