== What is BlitzLLVM?

BlitzLLVM is an attempt at a BlitzBasic (Blitz2D, Blitz3D, BlitzPlus) compiler using the LLVM compiler backend to enable support for many architectures and platforms. The LLVM backend enables us to take advantage of optimizations and architecture targets that LLVM already provides for other languages, and may even enable further functionality previously considered impossible.
