MuteGrammar

ANTLR v4 Grammar and interpreter for aliceffekt's mute scripting language.

How to test

Using the jar file

With a file as input

In a command line environment with Java 7 JRE installed, run :

java -jar MuteInterpreter.jar <filename>

Where <filename> is a text file containing valid mute code.

As an interactive interpreter

If the <filename> is omitted, an interactive mode starts instead, which allows you to enter Mute statements line by line and seeing the results.

C:\Users\Renaud\workspace\MuteGrammar>java -jar MuteInterpreter.jar

Mute Interactive Interpreter (version 1.0)

Exiting.

Using the ANTLR4 tools

See "Getting Started" instructions at http://www.antlr.org/ to have the aliases ready
antlr4 .\src\Mute.g4
javac -d .\bin .\src\Mute*.java
grun .\bin\Mute parse -gui
Enter mute script in console window followed by ^D (or ^Z in Windows)

Status

The Mute.g4 grammar will parse everything from the official Mute benchmark at the time of this writing. MuteInterpreter.jar supports everything except modules, but has low error tolerance. See demo.mute to see what's supported and tested for.

Current parsing limitations

Requires identifiers (names) to be at the beginning of a statement
Statement fragments that follow a module declaration must obey standard condition/assignation/operation block structure, but mute may accept anything at all as per the current spec
Identifiers must be ascii characters, unicode is not currently supported
Mac-style carriage returns without line feeds are not supported
The lexer will complain if it doesn't see an EOL before the EOF...
