1 Legend: - means planned/unreleased
3 * means finished/released
5 - MaLa 0.3 (planed features)
7 - ringbuffer for the program
8 - secondary types within the descriptor
9 types: dirty, int, float, mp ...
10 - source refactoring and cleanup
13 - for data (MRU dead queue, whatever) (maybe)
15 - modules/loaders produce macros instead engine->program (--MALARC --COMMANDLINE ...)
16 - hierachical expansion parser (start with '--' then, else if '-..')
17 - accumulate/robust errorchecking (less if()'s compound check)
18 - segv handler instead ENOMEM checking in experimental branch
19 - prereserve objects in freelists/wordtable for errorhandlers
21 - dynamic preprocessor substitutions ({ becomes --BEGIN, } becomes --END) like subst macros
28 - MaLa 0.2 (in progress)
29 Derived from the first hackerlab reference implementation
31 * expansions while pushback_program .. less bucket/string copy issues
32 + refactor stringlist api (no direct CIRCLEQ calls)
33 + define order of expansions
34 * actioninit takes 'parent' char* , brief/help become own actions
35 * new mala_strings shared, buckets, lookup, copy on write
36 * array for common names (instead string lookup)
37 + constant initialized strings (descriptor is dynamic, char* is const)
38 + modules/loaders produce macros instead engine->program (--MALARC --COMMANDLINE ...)
39 - accumulate/robust errorchecking (less if()'s compound check)
40 - *_dump needs stream handle (instead stderr fixed)
42 * prepend unknown words with --DEFAULT-PARSER on mala_engine_run (defaults to --LITERAL)
43 - '--DELAY' dont evaluate the next argument
44 * expansions dont do magic
45 * foo=bar becomes --SETENV foo bar
46 * ! --FOO becomes --NOT --FOO
47 * implement general --BEGIN --END blocks (compile to --BLOCK-nnnn with delayed evaluation)
48 * '_' is used internally as (namespace) delimiter
49 (underscore expansion prevents users from using it)
55 + macros for common parsers MALA_SUBSTITUTE_PARSER("FOO","BAR") etc.
