Hey hackers, I just finished up a lot of typing at the manual, and I hope I'm done with that. The net result is that the VM is documented quite thoroughly, and the compiler as well. I'll send those documents to the list in separate mails for inline comments.
Otherwise, in the course of documentation, I've made a few minor cleanups, some internal name changes and such. No sense polishing a turd, they say. I had an idea regarding unit tests recently: since GHIL and GLIL now have (documented!) S-expression representations, we should be able to easily and expressively test individual compiler passes. Looking forward to that. I also had another realization, that now that VM frames go into stack structures, that statprof should work with the VM. Have yet to check though. Anyway, just some babblings. I'll probably switch to benchmarking and profiling sometime soon. I also need to merge in master to vm, it's been a while and there are probably some conflicts. So that's my status. Happy hacking! Andy -- http://wingolog.org/
