# APLAcc
*APL to Accelerate compiler*
## Installation
Clone and run the following command in the toplevel directory:
```shell
$ cabal install
```
## Development installation
```shell
$ cabal install --only-dependencies
$ cabal configure
$ cabal build
$ export PATH=$PATH:$PWD/dist/build/aplacc/aplacc
```
## Usage
```
Usage: aplacc [options]
-v, --verbose verbose output
-t, --tail input file is a TAIL program
-c, --cuda use CUDA backend
--run run Accelerate program
```
To compile and run a TAIL program:
```shell
$ aplacc --tail program.tail > program.hs
$ ghc -threaded program.hs
$ ./program
```
To compile and run an APL program:
```shell
$ aplacc program.apl > program.hs
$ ghc -threaded program.hs
$ ./program
```
This requires that the [`aplt`](http://github.com/melsmann/apltail) compiler is available, either on your `PATH` or that the `APLT` environment variable contains the path to the compiler.
You can optionally use the environment variable `APLT_PRELUDE` to specify an APL file containing prelude function definitions.
With the `--run` flag, the Accelerate program is run with the `runghc` program instead of being printed.
```shell
$ aplacc --run program.apl
```
For this to work APLAcc must be installed with cabal or the environment variable `APLACC_HOME` must point to the directory containing `aplacc.cabal`.
## Testing
The repository contains a number of test programs. The test programs can be run using the `test.sh` script:
```shell
$ ./test.sh tests/working # Run all programs in the directory
$ ./test.sh tests/working/life.tail -v # Run specific program verbosely
```
