# yspace

yspace is a work-in-progress toolchain for the Whitespace programming

language written in Rust.

## Planned features

- wspls language server

  - Inline values for instruction names that are preserved while editing

  - Debugging

- wsvsc VS Code extension

  - Syntax highlighting

  - Render whitespace characters

  - Disassembly panel

- wsasm assembler

  - Support all dialects

  - Macros like [Whitelips](https://vii5ard.github.io/whitespace/) and

    others

  - Support constant or address arguments like

    [WhitespaceAssembler](https://github.com/littleBugHunter/WhitespaceAssembler)

  - Linting

    - Warn on usage of multiple mnemonic for same instruction

    - Warn on inconsistent mnemonics between corresponding IO

      instructions

    - Warn on inconsistent mnemonic capitalization

- wsdisasm disassembler

  - Format according to dialect definition

  - Automatically collapse constant or address arguments

  - Format constants in ASCII range as chars

- wspack compresser

  - wsx-format compression and decompression

- wspace interpreter

  - File execution

  - Whitespace Assembly REPL

## Languages

- Stack-based like Factor

  - First-class closures (see

    [“Closure elimination as constant propagation”](https://web.archive.org/web/20110726044425/http://factorcode.org/littledan/abstract.pdf))

## Architecture plans

- Written in Rust

- Parses with parser combinators

- LLVM backend

- Use e-graphs for optimization ordering

  ([Egg](https://egraphs-good.github.io/) library)
