ScummVM

ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files. The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the game, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never ... [More] designed! ScummVM lets you run these adventures: Adventure Soft's Simon the Sorcerer 1 and 2; Revolution's Beneath A Steel Sky, Broken Sword 1 and Broken Sword 2; Flight of the Amazon Queen; Wyrmkeep's Inherit the Earth; Coktel Vision's Gobliiins and games based on LucasArts' SCUMM (Script Creation Utility for Maniac Mansion) system. SCUMM is used for many games, including Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, Sam and Max and more. Compatibility with supported games is continually improving, so c [Less]

Erlang

Erlang is a programming language designed at the Ericsson Computer Science Laboratory. Ericsson released the entire source code of the Erlang system including extensive libraries of code for building robust fault-tolerant distributed applications.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

LLVM is a robust system, particularly well suited for developing new mid-level language-independent analyses and optimizations of all sorts, including those that require extensive interprocedural analysis. LLVM is also a great target for front-end development for conventional or research programming ... [More] languages, including those which require compile-time, link-time, or run-time optimization for effective implementation, proper tail calls or garbage collection. We have an incomplete list of projects which have used LLVM for various purposes, showing that you can get up-and-running quickly with LLVM, giving time to do interesting things, even if you only have a semester in a University course. We also have a list of ideas for projects in LLVM. [Less]

Squeak

Squeak is a modern, open source full-featured implementation of the powerful Smalltalk programming language and environment. Squeak is highly-portable - even its virtual machine is written entirely in Smalltalk making it easy to debug, analyze, and change. Squeak is the vehicle for a wide range of ... [More] projects from multimedia applications, educational platforms to commercial web application development. [Less]

Io Language

Io is a small, prototype-based programming language. The ideas in Io are mostly inspired by Smalltalk (all values are objects), Self (prototype-based), NewtonScript (differential inheritance), Act1 (actors and futures for concurrency), LISP (code is a runtime inspectable/modifiable tree) and Lua (small, embeddable).

The Slate Programming Language

OverviewThis is the source management site for the Slate programming language. Getting StartedTo get started with Slate, you need: A VM: Some pre-built VMs are available in the Downloads section. Or, get the sources via one of our repositories (cloning an hg or git repository or extracting a ... [More] tarball), and build using 'make'. A pre-made Slate image. Download the appropriate Slate image from our Downloads section. Currently we support all little-endian systems with a GCC toolchain or Visual Studio out of the box, with either a 32-bit or 64-bit build of VM and image equally supported. Build instructions are contained within the README in the source tree. If tweaks are required for your platform, please let us know so we can improve our support. Finally, run "./slate -i imagefile.image" Release PracticesWe are not currently making versioned releases, but image snapshots with the latest core library updates are uploaded mid-month or at the end of the month after confirming basic stability. If the images are not dated recently, that should be because they're still compatible with source trees from that date onward. IssuesStability should be steadily improving, and any major crashes are worth reporting. [Less]

BT747

Project to control GPS Dataloggers, mainly MTK based and convert GPS logs to several other formats using filters, etc. Runs on most platforms (Desktops, Linux, Mac, Palm, Mobile Phone, PocketPC).

Strongtalk

Strongtalk is a major re-thinking of the Smalltalk-80 programming language and system. While retaining the basic Smalltalk syntax and semantics, it contains a number of significant advances, including most notably a static type system for the language.

TurboVM

TurboVM is a small and simple virtual machine, intended as a compilation target for programming languages. TurboVM uses bytecode with a RISC instruction set designed for easy and fast generation and interpretation, as well as flexibility (i.e. it does not impose a certain paradigm like many other ... [More] VMs). Bytecode can be interpreted or compiled to native code (currently via C). Some speed tests indicate that the bytecode interpreter runs about a factor 15 to 30 slower than native programs, whereas compiling the bytecode yields performance equal to or close to that of equivalent programs written in C.

Smalltalk YX

Smalltalk YX is a Smalltalk-80 implementation. It's highly portable, and runs equally well on 32-bit and 64-bit systems, Mac, Unix, Windows, WinCE, or Solaris. It has an easy-to-use plugin system and is very active.
