Nimrod is a new statically typed, imperative +programming language, that supports procedural, functional, object oriented and +generic programming styles while remaining simple and efficient. A special +feature that Nimrod inherited from Lisp is that Nimrod's abstract syntax tree +(AST) is part of the specification - this allows a powerful macro system which +can be used to create domain specific languages. + +*Nimrod* is a compiled, garbage-collected systems programming language +which has an excellent productivity/performance ratio. Nimrod's design +focuses on the 3E: efficiency, expressiveness, elegance (in the order of +priority). + +See the file ``install.txt`` for installation instructions. See the file +``doc/intern.txt`` for the internal documentation for developers. + +Copyright (c) 2004-2010 Andreas Rumpf. +All rights reserved.
