Summary:  This folder contains information and sample code pertaining to 
the Dylan programming language.

¥ Dylan Alpha Demos
The apps in this folder were created with the Alpha (1.0a1) release of 
Apple Dylan. These are extremely simple and limited applications intended 
to give very rough sneak preview at DylanÕs output for our most special 
friends.

¥ Dylan FAQ 14Dec94
  Answers to Frequently Asked Questions about Dylan, a new 
object-oriented dynamic programming language (OODL) developed at Apple. 
Includes info about mailing lists and places to get sample code, 
implementations, and further information.

¥ Dylan Interim Reference Manual (DIRM)
This is the most current language specification for Dylan (214 pages). A 
completely
revised version will be available later this year.

¥ Dylan WWDC'94 brochure
  A two-page brochure describing the Apple Dylan environment distributed 
at the Apple World Wide Developers Conference in May 1994 by Apple.  This 
document was created with Common Ground so you don't need the original 
fonts or applications. On Mac, just double-click to view. Viewers for 
Windows or Unix are also available - contact NOHANDS@applelink.apple.com.


¥ J-Dylan info
This contains Japanese translations of the Dylan Interim Reference Manual 
(DIRM) and the Dylan FAQ.

¥ MacMarlais 0.5.9
Marlais is a freeware interpreter for Dylan. Includes sources. Runs on 
68K, PPC-native, Unix, Windows, and Windows NT.

¥ Mindy-1.2
Mindy is a freeware byte-code compiler for Dylan. Includes sources. Runs 
on 68K, PPC-native, and Unix.

¥ Thomas 1.1d/Gambit 2.0d
Thomas is a freeware Dylan interpreter written in Scheme. It's a bit more 
obsolete than Marlais and Mindy. We've included MacGambit, a very 
efficient Scheme compiler for 68K (Mac and Unix). Version ÒdÓ has 
recently been added with several improvements, but it still only supports 
the older (lisp-like) syntax.
