Hopeless is extended HOPE interpreter based on GPLed implementation by Ross Paterson
( see for more info http://www.soi.city.ac.uk/~ross/Hope/ ).

I plan to add here graphics and networking capabilities to use it as a regular language.
On other hand I plan to use it as a scripting language for big programs written in C/C++.

Latest sources for *NIX: hopeless-v0.5.tar.bz2 (100K)

Latest build for Windows (cygwin1.dll included): hopeless_cygwin.zip (0.8Mb)

27-June-2007 Hopeless v0.1

* option -v prints new name and version
* interactive command "write" does not print quotations now
* new interactive command "help" prints list of interactive commands

02-September-2007 Hopeless v0.2

* function "read" now can run commands (if filename starts with !)
* new example test/_run.hop demonstrates #!/..., argv and read("!...")
