BorrisYeltsin writes "The Parrot project has just released a functional compiler for Parrot. Almost all of the previous Apocalypses have been implemented as well as some other toys, including but not limited to: Ruby and Python parsers, BASIC and Scheme interpreters and a Forth compiler, the team are now working on Perl 6 regexes. Check it out at cvs.perl.org."

  1. The most recent release (0.0.7) also has it by matzim · · Score: 3, Informative

    If you really can't wait to get at the CVS version, the most recent release (parrot-0_0_7) also has the perl6 compiler (in languages/perl6). I don't know what nifty new things they've recently added in CVS, but the release version seems to work for (simple) programs. It's in Jeff Goff's directory (JGOFF) on CPAN.
