    Question Shakespeare Programming Language

    Hey there,

    I hope to get help here. I've never done things with C/C++ before and have to give a talk about "Shakespeare programming language". In the official documentation I've read that the language is compiled via C. I just want to get work a simple example code from the their homepage but I don't know how to do this.

    Here is the official documentation:
    http://shakespearelang.sourceforge.n...hakespeare.pdf
    In chapter 6 you can read how to do this via C.

    And here is an example how it might/should look like:
    Computational drama: Shakespeare programming language - YouTube

    It would be great if someone could help me out by a step by step instruction how to do this.
    Which compiler do I need to open the spl files? Or how do I open files by using C? I've really tried a lot of things but nothing worked

    Sorry, as I already mentioned, I'm completely new to C. I just want to open this code

    Thanks a lot for your support! :-)

    So why not download the actual reference implementation at The Shakespeare Programming Language and be done with it?
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Cause I don't know how to compile it with C :-( What do I have to do? I've downloaded and installed GCC and the SPL things and now?

    Well you 'cd' into the directory where the file called 'makefile' exists, and you just type 'make'.

    That will run the compiler, and generate the executable.
