Hello, everyone,

I've finished implementing the first iteration of the Bithenge script
language. You can give the program a script file and a data source and
it will print the decoded result. If you compile my HelenOS branch you
can run "bithenge /src/bithenge/trip.bh /src/bithenge/trip.dat" for an
example. Try it! The language is currently very limited and can only be
used for the simplest of structures.

I added support for Linux so I can run Bithenge more quickly and use
Valgrind.

Now that the basics of Bithenge are in place, there are several things I
could start working on. I'm inclined to keep working on the language,
specifically by adding support for parameters and expressions, because
other aspects of Bithenge won't be very useful until the language is
more powerful. Does this seem like a good idea?

I will be on vacation from July 1st through July 14th with limited time
to spend on my project. I'll have intermittent Internet access during
that time, so it would be best to discuss the midterm evaluations before
I leave. Is there anything you want to comment on? One thing I've
noticed is that there hasn't been much response to my past few
updates--not that I asked many questions, but it would have been nice to
get some feedback.

Thanks,
Sean Bartell
