NOTE: do contact the author (lukka@iki.fi for most of the stuff) if
|
||
|
|
there is an unfinished part that you really need - I sometimes need
|
||
|
|
prodding to get things finished. Comments are also appreciated.
|
||
|
|
|

|
|
NOTE 2:
|
||
|
|
THE SUBDIRECTORIES THAT ARE CURRENTLY BEING ACTIVELY WRITTEN ARE
|
||
|
|
CyberText, DesignProblems and Spec. THE OTHERS ARE A BIT STALE.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I recommend starting with the Gentle_Introduction and then working your
|
||
|
|
way through the others if the subject matters interests you (for example,
|
||
|
|
if you are not hacking the internals, CellScroll will not be interesting
|
||
|
|
to you).
|
||
|
|
|

|
|
Some of the documents are written in LaTeX using gpic to compile
|
||
|
|
diagrams (since it seems more reasonable than e.g. xypic or any
|
||
|
|
picture language I've seen for LaTeX). See the Makefile for how
|
||
|
|
the process is supposed to go. The LaTeX files also use rcs.sty,
|
||
|
|
which is available in the Debian linux package rcs-latex, but also
|
||
|
|
probably from CTAN. I'm planning to put up autogenerated PostScript
|
||
|
|
files of these Real Soon Now.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The files in this directory:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Gentle_Introduction/
|
||
|
|
an introduction to what ZigZag is and how it works.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Clang_Design/
|
||
|
|
Clang is a language for writing programs using the ZigZag
|
||
|
|
structure... no, better to say: Clang is a way of interpreting
|
||
|
|
a certain kind of ZigZag structure as a program.
|
||
|
|
This document discusses the various issues at stake when
|
||
|
|
designing Clang.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CellScroll/
|
||
|
|
CellScrolls are a way to store both the current state
|
||
|
|
and all former states of a ZigZag space.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Interfacing/
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
misc/
|
||
|
|
odds and ends
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DimBased/
|
||
|
|
Some thoughs on reorganization of the model to think about ZZ
|
||
|
|
in the code to be based on dimensions, not so much cells.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
PROTOCOL
|
||
|
|
ASCII description of the ZZ network protocol. Don't rely on this:
|
||
|
|
use the source, Luke.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The protocol needs some rethinking anyway.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
wmlinc/
|
||
|
|
Some include files used in the WML (website modeling language)
|
||
|
|
files around.
