Summary

Liquid is yet another attempt at a Lisp-like language. There are currently two implementations:

• A prototype written in Python
• A version written in D

The D version was intended to be a more "serious" implementation, for non-trivial projects. At this point (2009-09-21), development has been stalled until further notice, because the interpreter turned out to be too slow. :-(

(Of course, tips from *real* language designers on how to make it faster are welcome... :-)

Requirements

• Python version: Python 2.5 or 2.6
• D version: D 1.0; gdc frontend

The D version was developed and tested on Mac OS X. The included Makefile is for that operating system as well. Other systems may or may not work, without a little prodding.

Downloads

• Python version: liquid_python-20090712.tar.gz
• D version: http://svn.flowsnake.org/liquid_d/trunk/

Documentation

Liquid is still in the prototype stage. For now, there's a document describing the current state.
